We use two types of cookies—session cookies and persistent cookies.

Facebook Pixel
Our users our most important for us, and for this reasons we are devoted to conducting data analysis in order to optimise our activities and conduct marketing activities directed at those who are interested in our services.
For this purpose, in our legitimate interest, we decided to use on our website the tool called Facebook Pisel, provided by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, and in case of users within the European Union – Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. We are using this tool to conduct remarketing activities.
The action of the Facebook Pixel is based on a snippet of code that we have embedded on our website. Thanks to it, we can analyse data about users using our website in order to display our ads on the Facebook social network. Our advertisements may be directed to target groups of recipients created on the basis of the collected data. The information saved for the use of Facebook Pixel may include information about your device, websites visited, purchases made or the method of using services. The data collected via our website is then transferred to the tool provider in order to use its functionality. When you use our website, a signal that you are visiting our website is sent to the provider of the tool and its servers thanks to the Facebook Pixel. The information collected for the purposes of Facebook Pixel, which we use for remarketing purposes, is anonymous - we only see information related to the behavior of users on our website.
You have to know though that if you have a Facebook account the provider may link the data collected on our website with you account data on the portal. We have no influence on such actions, because they are related to your user account on Facebook. You can find more information here:
