Advertisement via Social Media

We use third-party advertising platforms, such as Facebook, TikTok, Google, YouTube, Instagram, etc. to send you messages that are targeted at you, based on your behaviour and browsing pattern, at specific times and locations of these platforms to increase the efficiency of our advertising campaigns.

In order to do this, we share your Personal Data with our advertising agency partners as well as Social Media Platforms. We use third-party solutions such as Google Analytics and Facebook Business Manager tools to help us do a better job at targeting our campaigns and messages for our consumers.

Social Media Platforms will attempt to match your profile in their database to determine the optimal time and place (the page you are browsing) to show you an advertisement from ECCO. We also need to analyse necessary information to understand the impact of our campaigns.

If you don’t accept that we track you for this purpose, you will still see ECCO advertisements on Social Media Platforms and other third-party platforms at random. Please also read the privacy notice on the Social Media Platforms to understand how your Personal Data is used by them for this purpose.

We use your data for different analytical purposes to better understand: a) how you browse and use our platforms; b) which products you are interested in; c) which features of our products and platforms you like; d) the quality of our services including customer service, marketing and advertising campaigns addressed to you, and your reaction to these services; e) our product and website design; f) whether overall user experience worked for you or not; and g) which rewards you most commonly redeem in ECCO’s membership program.

How we process Opt-out preference signals

A “do-not-track” signal is a privacy preference feature in some web browsers that tells a website that a user does not want their online activity to be tracked. We currently support Global Privacy Control (GPC), a specification designed to allow internet users to notify businesses of their privacy preferences, such as whether they want to have their Personal Data sold or shared with third parties for purposes of targeted advertising. It consists of a setting or extension in the user’s browser or mobile device and acts as a mechanism that websites can use to honor the user’s privacy settings. If you would like to use GPC, you can download and enable it via a participating browser or browser extension. If your browser has enabled GPC, it will override any cookie preferences selected in our Website’s cookie management console.

How to opt-in again:

If you have opted out of the sale or share of your Personal Information, you are welcome to opt back in at any time. To opt-in, contact us via email at ECCOUSA.Privacy@ecco.com and clearly request to opt-in to the sale or share of your Personal Information.

We sometimes offer special price discounts, rewards, coupons, services, and other benefits to customers who: (1) sign up to receive communications from us via email, text, chat, and social media; (2) download our Apps; and (3) create an ECCO membership account with us (collectively “programs”). For example, customers who create an account with us receive free shipping and returns on all purchases. Through these program offerings, consumers may provide us with some Personal Information (e.g., name, postal address, email address, phone number, birthday, and other similar forms of personal information) when they opt-in to our programs. There is no obligation to opt in and consumers who opt in may opt out at any time. The details of each program are contained in the program offering. We offer these programs to, among other things, enhance our relationship with customers. The value to our business, in the aggregate, of customers’ Personal Information depends on specific facts, such as the special offer provided at the time the customer signs up, whether and to what extent the customer takes advantage of any offerings, the amount purchased by the customer using that special offer, and the value of future special offers the customer receives from us and uses to make purchases. For example, a 20% discount offer will be valued differently depending on how much the customer purchases. We do not calculate the value of the customers’ information for our accounting statements. To the extent we would, however, such valuation would be directly or reasonably related to the cost associated with acquiring or developing such information.

You may opt-in to our programs by signing up in the manner invited for an individual program, either online or in stores, and you can opt out of these programs at any time by contacting a customer service representative through our toll-free number: 877-240-2365, or by using the unsubscribe methods provided for that communication channel such as unsubscribe links in email messages, and replying "Stop" to text messages. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.
