Privacy

Our Commitment

ONDIA is committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal information. This Privacy Statement explains the current information management practices on our websites.

We are committed to protecting your privacy whether you are browsing for information or conducting business with us.
ONDIA will only transmit this information internally or at a restricted basis to our authorized agents, distributors or contractors for the sole objective of supporting your requests and ensuring quality services to the user. ONDIA reserves the right to retain certain customer information relating to invoicing, account status and product warranties.

More information about cookies

ONDIA aims to make your online experience and interaction as informative, and relevant as possible. We use cookies or similar techniques to achieve this. We feel that it is important that you know what cookies our website uses and for what purposes. This will help to protect your privacy, while ensuring our website’s user-friendliness as much as possible.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored onto your terminal equipment (computer or mobile device) when you visit certain websites. At ONDIA we may use similar techniques, such as pixels, web beacons, device fingerprints, etc. For the sake of consistency, all these techniques combined will be hereafter referred to as “cookies”.

Why are cookies used?

Cookies may be used for many different purposes. In the first place, cookies can be required to make the website function properly. For example, without cookies it would be difficult to make a website remember that you have logged in, or which products you have put in your shopping cart. These are called required cookies.

Cookies can also be used to analyse how a website is used, to count the number of visitors, to learn how the website may be improved. We do not link the website usage statistics and other reports to individual people. These cookies are called analytics cookies.

Thirdly, social media cookies are used to enable integration of social media into the website, so that you can immediately like or share a page or product on your favourite social media service.

A fourth important use of cookies is to enable online advertising, which may be personalized to show ads that are more relevant and interesting to you, both within and beyond ONDIA websites. This is done by (targeted) advertising cookies

How to manage or disable cookies in your browser

Please be aware that ONDIA currently does not make use of a technical solution that would enable us to respond to your browser’s ‘Do Not Track’ signals. Besides using the Cookie Settings section on our website, you may manage your cookie settings in your browser settings at any time. Please be aware that your browser settings may not offer you the same ease of use as the Cookie Settings on our website. If you simply disable all cookies or all of our cookies in your browser settings, you may find that certain sections or features of our website will not work, because your browser may prevent us from setting functionally required cookies. Therefore, it is recommended to use the Cookie Settings on our website instead of disabling all cookies via your web browser.

You may find further information on how to disable cookies or manage your cookie settings for the browser that you use from the following list:

Cookies for displaying targeted advertisements and content (targeted advertising cookies)
In order to tailor information and advertising to your interest and relevance, we try to acquire an understanding of your likely interests on the basis of your visits and surfing behaviour on the ONDIA websites and other third party websites.. Based on these interests, we develop a segmented profile and then adapt the content and the advertisements on our website for various groups of customers.

Third parties that set cookies via our website may also try to find out what your interests are in this way, and this information may also be used to present you with content or advertisements that appear more likely to be of interest to you on other, non-ONDIA websites. In this case, the information about your current website visit may be combined with information from previous visits to websites other than ours.Even if these cookies are not used, please note that you will be provided with advertisements on our site; however, these advertisements will not be tailored to your interests. These advertisements can, for instance, be modified according to the content of the website. You can compare this type of content-related Internet advertisements with advertising on television. If, say, you are watching a cookery programme on TV, you will often see an advertisement about cooking products during the advert breaks while this programme is on.

We may use targeted advertising cookies for:

  1. the websites to record your visit and, as a result, to assess your interests
  2. a check to be run to see if you have clicked on an advertisement
  3. keeping track of how many visitors click on an advertisement
  4. information about your surfing behaviour to be passed to other websites
  5. third-party services to be used to show you advertisements tailored to your needs, interests or preferences
  6. determining which advertisements, ad technologies and ad networks are most effective for us
  7. showing you advertisements about products you have previously clicked on, searched for or otherwise shown interest in (retargeting)
  8. keeping track of which advertisements you have already been shown so that you are not always shown the same ones
  9. more interesting advertisements to be displayed on the basis of your social media usage
  10. you to submit questions or reviews about our products and, on the basis thereof, be presented with advertisements more likely to be of interest to you
  11. reviews submitted by you to be repurposed as product recommendations on other pages
  12. you to be connected with online authorized retailers, to be informed about price, availability and purchase conditions of the ONDIA product of your interest and keep track of your purchase preferences
  13. determining which advertisements you clicked on, before performing a purchase on our website
  14. keeping track of how many orders are placed by way of the advertisement, as well as their monetary value
  15. you to receive direct marketing e-mails tailored to your interests (if you have opted-in to receive such e-mails) or direct marketing e-mails about similar products as those which you have already purchased (if you have not opted out of receiving such e-mails).
  16. matching multiple devices (e.g. phone, tablet, laptop) to a visitor so that it can be tracked if an ad on one device may have triggered an action (such as a purchase) on another device (known as ‘cross device tracking’).
