Why we collect information

We collect data to:

  • Allow you to use our services (such as, logging in, tracing, communicating and managing your subscription); and
  • Improve our services for you.

Information We Collect

  1. When you visit our website https://www.migpolgroup.com/_old/, we collect the information you knowingly provide (for instance, when you fill in forms on the website to contact us or when you subscribe to our mailing lists). Such information may include your personal information. Personal information is any information by which you may be personally identifiable, such as name, email address, telephone number and any other information the website collects that is identified as personally identifiable information under an appropriate law. Those who want to receive our newsletter are required to provide necessary personal information, including name, email address, name of the organisation, and country. We will never sell your data to a third party. We may however share your data with governmental agencies if we are under a legal obligation to do so.
  2. MPG also collects information through Automatic Data Collection Technologies. The website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service. The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, United States. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites. Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to gather website traffic information (how often users visit a site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used before arriving to a site) and spreads such information to Google servers in the United States. Google Analytics does not identify individual users or associate their IP address with any other data held by Google.

We use Google Analytics to gather certain information such as your browser type or operating system, language, city and country to generate reports for system administration. We do not receive personally identifiable information from the use of Google Analytics. This information allows us to tailor our website to better meet your needs. We make no attempt to link this non-personal information with the individuals who browse this site. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this website is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking if you disable or refuse the cookie, disable JavaScript, or use the opt-out service provided by Google.

Note the deliberate emphasis of anonymous, as no personally identifiable information is collected about you unless you explicitly submit that information via a fill-in form on this website.

  • _utma: contains a unique and anonymous identifying ID, which allows us to ensure that subsequent visits to our website are recorded as belonging to the same (unique) visitor.
  • _utmb: used to establish and continue a unique user session. Each time you request another page from the website the cookie is updated to expire after 30minutes.
  • _utmc: works with __utmb to determine when to create a new session for a website visitor. This is a session cookie and expires when you exit the browser.

Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies are used to increase the usability of our website. We use Google Maps on our “Stockist locator” page and “Repair center” page to provide detailed information on how to locate our stockists and repair centres. Google Maps stores up to four cookies: khcookie, NID, SNID and PREF. We use Google’s interactive maps because we believe they provide a helpful way for our visitors to identify how best to travel to us.

We use the Google Maps tools on the basis that Google adheres to its privacy policy and its terms of service for Google.

Social sharing cookies

https://www.migpolgroup.com/_old/ contains social buttons that allow our customers to share products through social networks such as Facebook and Google+. If you click on a social media button, most will set a third-party cookie e.g. Twitter, Google +1, Facebook etc. Please take this into account if you wish to share content socially – social networks use 3rd-party cookies.

  1. We use the Google “+1” plugin to help us market and promote our business using Google’s services. The plugin allows visitors to use the “+1” button to recommend our website to their contacts. The plugin creates at least two cookies, BEAT (a persistent cookie set to expire after 1 day) and ULS (a session cookie). We use the plugin as a convenience for our visitors, and we use it on the basis that Google adheres to its privacy policy for more information.
  2. We use the Facebook “Like Box” plugin to help us market our business using the Facebook Social Network. The plugin detects whether you have “Liked” our Facebook page and uses this information to present either a “Like” button or a “You Like this” message with various other associated details from Facebook. If you are not logged in to Facebook, no cookies should be served. If you are logged in to Facebook, the plugin creates and/or updates a series of third-party cookies. The plugin also uses JavaScript localStorage, creating a key-value pair called “FB_templateDataResponse”. We use the plugin as a convenience for our visitors, and we use it on the basis that Facebook adheres to its data use policy – see http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ for more information.
  3. We may use YouTube to host video content. When you view a web page on our site with an embedded YouTube video, YouTube creates at least three cookies: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE, use_hitbox, and PREF. In some circumstances you may also find an additional GEO cookie. We use the YouTube service as a convenience for our visitors, and we use it on the basis that Google adheres to its privacy policy for more information.
