SWAROVSKI will not disclose personal data to such companies, i.e. they shall only place a permanent cookie with users of the WEBSITE in order to recognize users and do so in the sole interest of SWAROVSKI. This allows SWAROVSKI to place aimed advertisements for these individuals on external third party websites (e.g. in connection with products for which these individuals showed an interest in the online-shop). SWAROVSKI will not disclose personal data to the operators of external websites. The companies owning these websites and platforms have their own privacy policies in place, and SWAROVSKI privacy policy does not extend to the processing activities carried out by these third Parties where the latter are acting on their own account.
