Personalization

In order to optimize your shopping experience, we strive to send you communication, product information, marketing and newsletters that match your interest and profile, such as birthday greetings. We do this based on segmentation and personalization.

When using segmentation our members are divided into various customer groups based on general and common characteristics such as age, zip code, etc. and the communications and content that you are presented with are then linked to what specific customer group you are part of.

Our aim is to personalize and create relevant content and information which we display to you in our communications, in our apps, on social media platforms or on our websites based on your interests, preferences, and activities such as previous purchases in our online shops and stores. We combine these data with data obtained via cookies or other tracking technologies meaning that when you visit our websites or apps, we register information about what you show interest in and what you buy. We may also record whether you have opened a newsletter and whether you have clicked on the advertisements therein. This information may be combined with other information which you have provided to our advertising partners or which they have collected themselves. Based on this information, we analyze what you are interested in and customize our communication and marketing towards you.

The above types of information are only collected via cookies if you have consented to these types of cookies being placed on your device(s).

Personalization is also offered via individual service in our stores where the store personnel can use the information about you such as previous purchases (both online and in stores) to guide you better
