- Communicate with you;
- Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and
- When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
We use re-marketing, this involves placing a cookie when you browse our website so that we can show you an advert for our products or services when you visit another website. We may use a third party to provide us with re-marketing services from time to time. If so, then if you have consented to our use of cookies, you may see adverts for our products and services on other sites.
