3. Pixel Tags

3.1 In addition to cookies, we also use so-called “Pixel Tags”, “web beacons”, “JavaScript” or similar technologies which enable us to carry out such tasks as tracking your activity when you use the Website or receive e-mail messages, (collectively referred to as “Pixel Tags”). Pixel Tags may be used in connection with our websites, our online advertising or our e-mail messages, either by us or by our suppliers, business partners or other third parties.
