How and What Information Is Collected

Amer Sports collects information from our online visitors on a voluntary basis. This information may be provided by visitors in many ways, including during contest registrations, surveys, when you register for online or offline newsletters, when you are invited to provide content or participate in interactive online activities or subscribe for product information. This information may include name, address, phone number, date of birth, e-mail address, product preferences, store preferences, and other items included in our registration forms.

In addition, Amer Sports collects some information passively from the visitors at its site. For instance, through IP Addresses and cookies.

An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web. Web servers - the central hosting computers that "serves up" Web pages - automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When users request pages from the Site, our servers log the users' IP addresses. We do not link IP addresses to any other information about you which is personally identifiable. This means that a user's session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us.

'Cookies' are pieces of information which a web site transfers to an individual's hard drive for record keeping purposes. 'Cookies' make Web-surfing easier for you by saving your passwords and preferences while you are at a site and allow for a personalised experience when you visit our Site.

Amer Sports collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and usage analysis of the Site and to report aggregated information to its advertisers.

Amer Sports uses 'cookies' to track how and when visitors use its Site. 'Cookies' are used to determine which part of the Site are popular and which are not.

If you would prefer, you can set your web browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, it is possible that some parts of the Site, such as the contest and game areas, will not function properly if you do so.

Amer Sports does not use cookies to identify specific individuals, except in cases such as contest registration (where a cookie allows you to enter a contest every day without registering again each time).

Except as described above, Amer Sports does not use the information transferred through cookies for any promotional or marketing purposes, nor is that information shared with any third parties.
