Cookies and other technologies

We use the information collected by cookies to help our computer system remember you, to log you into your account and your preferences, to provide you with advertisements, offers or other content tailored to your interests, and to assess how our websites are used. You can accept or reject cookies in your browser settings. To learn more, please see the cookie settings available on your specific web browser(s). You can subsequently change/set cookies in your account under Privacy Tools.

Interest-based adverts

We use information such as your interactions with BioEsence websites, content or services to serve interest-based ads. We do not use information that identifies you, such as your name or email address, to serve interest-based ads.

As is common in the advertising business, we use cookies, pixels and other technologies (collectively, "cookies") that allow us to understand the effectiveness of the interest-based ads we show you, so that we can measure which ads have been clicked on or viewed and to provide you with more useful and relevant ads. For example, if we know which adverts are shown on your browser, we can be careful not to show the same adverts repeatedly.

Cooperation with third parties for displaying internet advertisements

We work with third parties such as advertisers, publishers, social networks, search engines (e.g. Google), advertising companies working on our behalf to improve the relevance of the ads we show. In delivering interest-based ads, we do not link your interactions on unrelated websites to information that identifies you personally, such as your name or email address, and we do not provide any such information to third-party advertisers or websites that serve our interest-based ads. Advertisers and other third parties may assume that users who interact with or click on an interest-based ad or content are part of the group to which the ad or content is targeted (for example, users in a particular geographic area or users who have purchased or browsed dietary supplements).

Children's online privacy

We do not collect personal data of persons under the age of 18.
