We use the tracking technologies from AT Internet (https://www.atinternet.com/en/company/data-protection/) for the media center.
How visits to the media center are measured:
AT Internet measures activities on the websites, mobile sites and apps using cookies that are linked to our URLs. To learn more about cookies, please read the section “Use of Cookies.” Our cookies comply with European Union legislation on data privacy and protection of personal information (EU GDPR).
9.1. What is measured
When an Internet user visits a medium that is monitored by a solution from AT Internet, AT Internet uses cookies to measure statistical data relating to calling of the offering in question. Examples of what is measured:
· The type of browser used
· The number of page views
· The exact navigational path a visitor takes on the site
· The amount of time spent on a page or the entire site
· Shopping cart activity (items placed in the cart, abandonments, etc.)
· IP addresses (processed so that personal identification is not possible)
What is not measured when the offering is called:
· Personal information that may permit identification of a person, such as the names of users
· Users’ contact information, such as phone numbers or e-mail addresses
9.2. Processing, storage and disclosure of data
AT Internet collects the data using local servers in France, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan and Singapore. By collecting data on servers that are located all over the world near to Internet users, IT Internet improves the speed and performance with which data is collected for its customers.
All the collected data is then stored securely on AT Internet’s servers in France. All data processing activities are carried out in France. No third-party offerings are used to process data.
9.3. Geolocation
Calls in the Web and on mobile sites are geolocated using the IP address.
During collection and processing of the data, AT Internet (like most offerings for digital analysis and marketing) tracks the IP addresses of users. AT Internet collects the IP addresses of mobile users regardless of how the user’s mobile device accesses the Internet – whether by WiFi or the nearest 3G/4G cell tower.
AT Internet uses IP addresses solely for determining the geographical location of website visitors at the regional level and, in some countries, also for individual cities. AT Internet never links the IP address with information that might enable a person to be identified.
In order to ensure even better protection for personal information, AT Internet offers the possibility of anonymizing visitors’ IP addresses: The last three digits of the IP address are then deleted immediately after the data has been collected and before the geolocation is determined.
The IP addresses are anonymized and truncated by default for users who visit this website.
AT Internet stores IP addresses for a maximum of 6 months.
9.3.1. Use of GPS for geolocation of users who visit the website using a mobile deviceAT Internet has developed a technology based on GPS coordinates truncated to two decimal places in order to enable geolocation of mobile devices. These coordinates are converted into a graphical representation (heatmap). Complete details are never presented on the web interface that is shown.
There is a strict double opt-in procedure for geolocation of mobile devices by GPS: So that users can be tracked by GPS, they must generally have activated the GPS services and also enable the GPS services specifically for the apps. So that the features of AT Internet GPS geolocation can be used, your app must have an option for permitting geolocation. The decision of users must be respected. They must be able to exercise their right to see, change and erase personal data concerning them that has been collected.
9.4. Your rights
You have the right to access your personal data AT Internet may have collected, to change it and to have it erased. If you wish to exercise these rights, we ask you to contact AT Internet by sending
an e-mail to dpo@atinternet.com, or
a letter to AT Internet. The following address is available:
