Policy on the Use of Cookies and Identification, Profiling, and Localization Technologies
Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your device when you visit a website, use a mobile application, or download an e-mail. Cookies allow a website to recognize a device and store information (e.g., your preferences, your use of the website) and read that information each time you access the website.
There are two types of cookies: (i) primary; and (ii) third parties. Essentially, the two types are technically identical and perform the same functions; the main difference is how they are created and then used.
Primary cookies. Primary cookies are created by the website you are visiting. A website can only access cookies that it has placed on your device, so, for example, cookies placed when you visit a search engine cannot be accessed by our websites.
Third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are created by a site other than the one you are visiting and are primarily used for profiling and for behavioural advertising purposes. They also allow website owners to provide certain services. This type of cookie can be placed via what is known as a Web beacon (more on this below). Because a website can only access the third-party cookies placed by it, we cannot access the third-party cookies placed on any of our websites.
A web beacon, often referred to as a pixel invisible, is a transparent image, usually 1 pixel x 1 pixel, that is placed on a website or in an e-mail to assess how a user interacts with specific content. Web beacons operate by sending information with the request to the third party’s web server when the request for the web beacons is made.
Most browsers allow you to configure how cookies are accepted by your browser. Keep in mind that changing your cookie settings may prevent certain websites from functioning properly. Please consult your browser developer’s documentation to find out how to configure your cookie settings.
You can also use your browser’s private or incognito mode, which will automatically delete any cookies placed while you are in private mode when all private mode tabs are closed. See your browser’s help section for details on how private mode works.
Some recent browsers have a built-in functionality to block or control the profiling content. We invite you to consult your browser’s help section to see if such a feature is available.
Some browsers may have extensions created by third parties that can be used to manage and delete cookies. If you decide to use extensions, please pay particular attention to the extensions you install and the permissions they require.
You can also disable our use of cookies and similar technologies that allow us to profile and display advertising on third-party sites.
We wish to use cookies and web beacons to:
Traffic analysis. We use cookies to understand how you interact with our websites. Our partners may also use cookies to analyze your use of our websites and provide us with information about your use of them.
Preferences and functionalities. We use cookies to keep your preferences and enable the proper functioning of our web video player.
Marketing. We use cookies to enable our digital advertising providers to display advertisements to you based on your interests and your use of our websites. Also, our partners Meta and Tik Tok use cookies to determine which kind of publicity might interest you, if our advertisements have been shown to you and if so, if you interacted with them. In that case, our partners share with us data and statistics regarding the performance of our advertisements. These cookies and web beacons also enable us to advertise promotional material on web sites not owned by LGE.
We use web beacons in our promotional e-mails to collect statistics on the opening of e-mails and the interaction with the content of e-mails in order to analyze the performance of our promotional campaigns. We use your interaction with our promotional e-mails as an indicator of your interest in our products and services. We could adjust the way we contact you based on your interaction with our promotional e-mails.
Analytical tools are used to collect, analyze, and measure web traffic and user visits to our websites in order to understand and optimize their use. Analytical tools work by collecting information about a visitor’s interactions with one or more web pages. This information includes, for example, the visitor’s IP address.
3.2.1 Google Analytics
We use the Google Analytics tool offered by Google Inc. to collect information about how visitors use our websites. We use the reports compiled by Google Analytics to help us improve our websites.
Information is collected in an anonymous format and includes:
Further information on the information made available to us by Google Analytics can be found on this page.
When we send your IP address to Google for use with Google Analytics, we anonymize it by truncating the last 3 digits. The Google Analytics Terms of Use prohibit us from sending personal information to Google through Google Analytics. Information about your interaction with our websites will be transferred to and stored by Google.
In addition, we also use the following services offered by Google Analytics:
For more information on how Google treats the personal information, it may hold about you as a result of the Google Analytics services it provides to us, please see Google’s Privacy Policy for this purpose available here.
