The term "we", "us" or "our" in this Cookie Policy refers to Hasbro Promotions International B.V., and any of its affiliate companies, (collectively "Hasbro"). This Cookie Policy applies to information we may collect when you use our website: Hasbro Pulse (the "Website").

 

We are committed to protecting the privacy of your personal data in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws. Further information about how Hasbro uses your personal data can be found in our Privacy Notice. This Cookie Policy sets out the practices in relation to the cookies and other similar technology used by Hasbro on the Website.

However, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Website.

 

1. What are cookies?

The Website uses cookies or other similar technologies to collect information about your access to the Website.

 

We use the term "cookies" to refer to small text files that are installed on your browser, computer, or mobile device to store and sometimes track information about you. They allow the Website to recognize your device. Cookies can serve several purposes: they help us provide you with a better Website, by enabling us to collect statistical data and adapt the content of the Website by monitoring which pages you find useful and which you do not, and by gathering and remembering information about your preferences such as language preferences, passwords and log-in details. A number of cookies the Website uses last only for the duration of your session on the Website and expire when you close your browser. Other cookies are used to remember you when you return to the Website and will last for longer. Please see ‘Hasbro Cookies’ section to check the expiry period of each cookie.

 

2. Which cookies do we use?

We use cookies on the Website to:

  • recognise the operating system on your device or computer and the type of tablet or smartphone you are using to access the Website;
  • monitor Website performance and improve Website services;
  • remember that you have visited us before. This means we can identify the number of unique visitors we receive and, for example, make sure we have enough capacity for the number of users that visit the Website.
  • customise elements of the layout and/or content of the Website;
  • monitor use of features and services, traffic and demographic trends, and browser versions; and
  • collect anonymous statistical information about how you use the Website (including how long you spend on the Website and the pages you visit within the Website) and where you have come to the Website from, so that we can improve the Website and learn which parts of the Website are most popular with visitors. We may share anonymous statistical information with carefully selected third parties such as our digital agencies.

 

Some of the cookies used on the Website are set by us ("first party cookies") and some are set by third parties ("third party cookies") who are delivering services on our behalf.

 

When you visit a page on the Website it may generate any of the following types of cookies:

 

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required to save your session and to carry out other activities that are strictly necessary for the operation of the Website. They enable us to provide you with services you have specifically asked for and are essential for you to move around the Website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the Website. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, such as placing items in a shopping basket, cannot be provided to you. We also use security cookies to ensure the security of the Website. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the Website to you, you cannot refuse them.

 

The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to the GDPR.

 

You can block or delete them by changing your browser settings, as described below in ‘Managing your cookies’. However, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Website.

 

Functionality Cookies

Subject to your prior consent, we use functional cookies to allow the Website to remember choices you make on the Website (such as your user name, language or the region you are in) to provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that you can customise. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. These cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. They also do not gather any information about you that could be used for advertising or remembering where you’ve been on the Internet besides our websites.

 

Performance Cookies

Subject to your prior consent, these cookies collect information about your visit and use of the Website, for instance, which pages you visit most often, and if you get error messages from such web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you. All information these cookies collect is only used to improve how the Website works. We also use these cookies to understand how our media campaigns work. This information is used to evaluate and improve the content of the Website and our campaigns and ultimately to improve user experience.

 

Analytics and Customisation Cookies

Subject to your prior consent, we use these cookies, to help us understand how users’ access and use our services. The data collected typically includes information such as your IP address, your internet service provider, your web browser, the time spent on web pages, the links clicked, and the advertisements viewed on those pages. We use this information to improve the Services and your experience, to see which areas and features of our services are popular, and for which visitors, and to count visits.

 

Google Analytics

Subject to your prior consent, we will use, for instance, Google Analytics on the Website, a web analysis tool by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google“). Google Analytics uses cookies. The information concerning your visit to the Website as created by the cookie will be transferred and stored to a server of Google in the US.

 

The anonymization of IP addresses is activated by default. Due to IP anonymization, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

 

Google acts as a data processor and has, according to its own information, promised to comply with applicable data protection laws in the international transfer of data.

 

On our behalf, Google will use this information in order to evaluate your use of the Website, to assemble respective reports and to offer further services connected with the use of the Website or the internet.

 

Data transfer to third countries

To the extent that data is processed outside the EU/EEA and there is no level of data protection corresponding to the European standard, we have concluded EU standard contractual clauses with the service provider to establish an appropriate level of data protection. The parent company of Google Ireland, Google LLC, is based in California, USA. A transfer of data to the USA and access by US authorities to the data stored by Google cannot be ruled out. The USA is currently considered a third country from a data protection perspective. You do not have the same rights there as within the EU/EEA. You may not be entitled to any legal remedies against access by authorities.

 

Storage period

The data sent by us and linked to cookies are automatically deleted after six (6) months. The deletion of data whose retention period has been reached occurs automatically once a month.

 

Withdrawal

You can withdraw your consent at any time with future effect by calling up the
and changing your selection there. The lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until your withdrawal remains unaffected.

 

You can also prevent the storage of cookies from the outset by setting your browser software accordingly. However, if you configure your browser to reject all cookies, this may result in a restriction of functionalities on this and other websites. In addition, you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google, by:

 

a. Not giving your consent to the setting of the cookie; or

b. downloading and installing the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics available here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de-DE.

 

For more information on Google Analytics' terms of use and Google's privacy, please visit https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/de/ and https://policies.google.com/?hl=de.

 

Social Networking Cookies

Subject to your consent, we use social sharing cookies to enable you to share any content of interest on social networks and sometimes we may present some targeted advertisements on these networks based on your interaction with the Website.

 

3. What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to the Website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like clear GIFs (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "web beacons"), browser analysis tools and server logs for similar purposes as described in this Cookie Policy and we may include them on our sites, in marketing email messages or our newsletter and affiliated websites to determine whether messages have been opened and whether links have been clicked on. The information provided in this Cookie Policy about cookies also applies to these technologies. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

 

Clear GIFs: Clear GIFs (or "web beacons") are small electronic images that are placed on a web page or in an email message. We use clear GIFs to monitor user behaviour, deliver cookies, collect information, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness, and to tell if a recipient has opened and acted upon an email.

Log Files: Log files record the Website activity on our services and enable us to gather statistics about our users' browsing habits. These entries help Hasbro determine (among other things) how many and how often users have accessed or used our Website, which pages of our Website they've visited, and other similar data.

Do Not Track (DNT) Signals: Your browser may allow you to set a Do Not Track (DNT) signal indicating that you do not wish your online activity to be tracked. Currently, our system does not support and cannot act on DNT signal headers that we may receive. However, the choices that we provide you concerning collection and use of your personal data will continue to operate as described in the Privacy Notice and this Cookie Policy and non-essential cookies will only be installed with your prior consent.
