These technologies don’t gather personal or identification information. The collected information is grouped together with information from other people’s use of our Website, Platform and our App on an anonymous basis and aiming to provide us with analytical information about how our Website, Platform and our App are performing and give some advice on how to improve it.

“Insofar as the User has provided the Publisher with personal data concerning him/her, in particular through his/her registration to the Website, Platform and our App, or other information forms on the Website, Platform and our App, the Publisher is likely, subject to the User’s choices, to associate browsing information collected via Cookies, with the User’s personal data in order to send him, for example, electronic marketing messages or to display personalised advertising on his terminal, from the Publisher: from other entities of the Group or from third party commercial partners, again according to the User’s prior express choices.

The User may at any time request to no longer receive advertisements or prospecting tailored to the browsing information of his/her terminal, by contacting the Publisher directly and free of charge on the Site, or by means of the unsubscribe link included in any prospecting that the Publisher may send by e-mail. If the User chooses to refuse behavioural advertising, this does not mean that he will no longer receive advertising on the Internet, but that the advertising displayed on the Site will no longer correspond to his interests or preferences on the web browser used by the User.

The Website utilises Google Analytics and other third-party tools to help Scroble understand the usage of the offered services. We may combine the data from Google Analytics with our own data (data collected by Scroble) for some advertising features (listed below) and third-party cookies (like Google’s advertising cookies) as permitted by Google’s and Scroble’s respective policies. We provide with a guidance on how to opt-out of Google Analytics Advertising Features at the bottom of this policy. We may also use Facebook App Events SDKs for analytics in the Apps in a similar way, subject to your Opt-Out.

You can find more information on how Google Analytics works in this Google guide HERE and on Facebook App Events HERE.

Social network sharing cookies

The Publisher offers Users the possibility to share editorial or other content published on the Platform, the Website and the App through social networks. These Cookies also allow social networks to target their advertising offers. Social network Cookies are managed by the publisher of the social network. The User is invited to take note of the social network’s cookie management policy on the sites concerned that are linked to third party social media service providers such as Facebook or Google as we do not control these settings and you should check the service provider’s own conditions for further details about how they use such technologies.

“Flash”© Cookies from “Adobe Flash Player”™

“Adobe Flash Player”™ is a computer application that allows the rapid development of dynamic content using the “Flash” computer language. Flash (and similar applications) memorises the settings, preferences and use of these contents using a technology like Cookies. However, “Adobe Flash Player”™ manages this information and the User’s choices via an interface different from that provided by their browser software. Insofar as the User’s terminal is likely to view content developed with the Flash language, the User can access its Flash Cookie management tools, directly from the website HTTP://WWW.ADOBE.COM/FR/

5. Services in the Apps (SDKs)

The software development kits (SDK) are used to provide mobile performance and analytics data, bug reporting features, and application program interfaces (or API) to help providing our services to Users, to enable and to improve social media functionality, and for marketing and advertising purposes. Scroble may use third-party application for its Services within the App and the platform. While Scroble’s app SDKs could change over time also with (and in dependence on) the features and releases of the App and the Platform, we are listing some core app SDKs below with their own privacy policies.

How can the User manage Cookies?

When the User first connects, he/she is informed that the Publisher’s partners and any other identified third party may deposit Cookies via the Website. Only the sender of a Cookie is likely to read the information contained therein and the Editor has no access to the Cookies that third parties may use. The issuance and use of Cookies by third parties are subject to the privacy policies of such third parties in addition to the provisions of this Policy. Consequently, the User is invited to visit the websites of these third parties for more information on the Cookies they store and how the User can manage them.

Management by the User of the deposit of Cookies

The User can manage the deposit of Cookies in the following way:

– The deposit of strictly necessary technical Cookies is activated by default and cannot be deactivated by the User, as these Cookies are essential to the functioning of the Site;

– The User deactivates or activates the installation of Cookies subject to his/her consent (audience measurement Cookies, behavioural analysis Cookies, advertising Cookies, etc.) via the information banner or the table below [to be adapted according to the options chosen]. Any deactivation entails the User’s refusal to deposit the Cookie in question;

By continuing to browse, i.e. when the User has clicked on an element of the Site (image, link, “search” button, etc.) or has gone to another page of the Site, the User validates the installation of Cookies, according to the default setting proposed.

If the User activates the saving of Cookies in his terminal, the Cookies integrated in the pages and contents that he has consulted may be stored temporarily in a dedicated space in his terminal. They will only be readable by the sender. The consent given by the User is only valid for a period of thirteen (13) months from the first deposit in the User’s terminal equipment, following the expression of the latter’s consent.

If the User disables the storage of Cookies in his/her terminal or browser, or if he/she deletes those stored there, the User is informed that his/her browsing and experience on the Site may be different from that of other Users who have activated the Cookies (non-personalised content). This could also be the case when the Editor or one of our service providers cannot recognise, for technical compatibility purposes, the type of browser used by the terminal, the language and display settings or the country from which the terminal seems to be connected to the Internet. Where applicable, the Publisher declines all responsibility for the consequences of the degraded functioning of the Site resulting from the refusal of Cookies by the User.
