Cookies Policy

The Worldofdancegermany.com website uses cookies. A cookie is a text file that a website places on your device (smartphone, tablet or computer). Cookies are stored on your device when you are on the Internet, and they have information on activity in your browser.

What cookies do we use?

Necessary cookies help us provide the best experience when you visit and navigate through Worldofdancegermany.com website and use its features.

Analytical cookies – they allow us to measure the number of visits and collect information on the sources of traffic, which helps us improve the functioning of our website. They also help us learn which pages are the most popular, or how users navigate our site. The lack of consent to these cookies does not impact the use of our sites.
Information of this type is collected with the help of Google Analytics, which makes recording and analyzing the website statistics possible. You can read additional information about Google Analytics and information it collects here.

Tracking pixels
Worldofdancegermany.com also uses tracking pixels. A pixel is software code that allows an object, usually an image the size of a pixel, to be embedded on a page, which provides the ability to track users' behavior on the web pages where it is placed. The optimal operation of a pixel can be combined with the use of own cookies (first-party cookies) or external cookies (third-party cookies).
Once you have given the appropriate consent, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the server storing the pixel, so the processing of the data collected by the pixel takes place within the data protection policy of the entity that administers the aforementioned server, such as an Worldofdancegermany.com partner. The partner may attribute your visit to the Worldofdancegermany.com website if you are registered on its service, also in correlation with a possible cookie assigned to your session.

When users click on a link/banner on the partner's website, they are directed to a page belonging to the advertiser. If they access the sub-pages on which the pixel is located, this information is then sent to the partner's server and then forwarded to the advertiser.
Thanks to the pixel, the advertiser obtains aggregated information on how many people who have used the link/banner on the partner's website have made a purchase from the partner, if the pixel has been planted on a page informing about the completion of an order.

Our cookies do not store any sensitive information that could threaten your security or privacy.
