Pixel Tags
Pixel tags are small, invisible pieces of text or images on a website that are used to monitor traffic on a website.
Our group and our third-party service providers may use pixel tags (also known as ‘clear gifs’, ‘beacon gifs’, ‘web beacon’ etc), tracking links and/or similar technology to:
- Track customer response towards MIH Group advertisements and website content;
- Determine your ability to receive HTML-based email messages;
- Our email service provider includes a pixel tag, which they refer to as a ‘coded sensor’ in all of the HTML-based messages sent on our behalf.
- The sensor activates when the email message is opened and flags the email address of the user as one that is capable of receiving HTML-based email messages.
- This capability helps our service provider to send the email in a format you can read.
- The sensor does not collect or use any other information.
- If you cannot receive HTML, you will not receive a functioning sensor;
- Know how many users open an email and allow our service provider to compile aggregated statistics about an email campaign for us; and
- Allow us to better target interactive advertising, enhance customer support and site usability, and provide offers and promotions that we believe would be of interest to you.
None of your Data apart from what you voluntarily provide us in your dealings with our group operations will be collected.
