Such data, which is collected passively using various technologies, cannot be used as such to identify you. We also collect non-personal data (including but not limited to the types of data mentioned above) from third parties. The information we collect from third parties can be combined with the data we collect. Aggregated personal data: We are constantly working to better understand and support the needs of the users of our services. We therefore conduct research on our customers’ demographic data, interests and behavior based on personal data or other information we collect. The results of these studies can be compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis. You cannot be personally identified through this aggregated data and are therefore considered non-personal data in the context of this privacy policy.
