What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer when you visit a digital platform. Cookies are widely used by digital platform owners in order to make them work, or to make them work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. For example, they may include details of your computer’s IP address, browser type, screen resolution, as well as certain behavioural or preference information, such as language preference, or which pages you visited and for how long.
Cookies set by the digital platform owner are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by other people are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the digital platform (like analytics, advertising and videos). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the digital platform in question and also when it visits certain other digital platforms.
Why do you use cookies?
We use cookies for two purposes:
- to make the digital platform operate with the functionality that you expect, e.g. if on one page you signed in, select a language preference, or put items into a shopping trolley, the cookie lets us recognise you on the next page so that you don’t have to do those same operations again (and so on every page); and
- to collect information about the visitors to our digital platforms in order to improve our digital platforms, and in order to better understand the preferences of uses of our digital platforms so we can serve content that is more relevant for them.
However, we collect information using cookies in a way that does not enable us to determine the identity of visitors to our digital platforms, unless they choose to provide this voluntarily.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
No. At this time, we do not serve any cookies through our digital platform for targeted advertising purposes, nor do we allow any third party to do this.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.
You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. As the ways in which you can do this vary from browser to browser, please visit your browser’s help menu for further details. Note that if you choose to reject cookies, doing so may impair some of our digital platform functionality.

Where might information about you be sent?
As with any multinational organization, PMI affiliates transfer information globally once shared with PMI affiliates. Accordingly, information about you may be transferred globally (for example, if you are in the European Economic Area (“ EEA ”), your information may be transferred outside the EEA).
When using information as described in this notice, information about you may be transferred either within or outside the country or territory where it was collected, including to a country or territory that may not have equivalent data protection standards.
For example, PMI affiliates within the EEA may transfer personal information to PMI affiliates outside the EEA. In all such cases, the transfer will be:
- on the basis of a European Commission adequacy decision ;
- subject to appropriate safeguards, for example the EU Model Contracts ; or
- necessary to discharge obligations under a contract between you and us (or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at your request) or for the conclusion or performance of a contract concluded in your interest between us and a third party, such as in relation to travel arrangements.
In all cases, appropriate security measures for the protection of personal information will be applied in those countries or territories, in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
How do we protect information about you?
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal information that we hold from unauthorized disclosure, use, alteration or destruction. Where appropriate, we use encryption and other technologies that can assist in securing the information you provide. We also require our service providers to comply with strict data privacy and security requirements.
How long will information about you be kept?
We will retain information about you for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes for which the information was collected. After that, we will delete it. The period will vary depending on the purposes for which the information was collected. Note that in some circumstances, you have the right to request us to delete the information. Also, we are sometimes legally obliged to retain the information, for example, for tax and accounting purposes.
Typically, we retain data based on the criteria described in the table below:
Type |
Explanation/typical retention criteria |
|
Most of the information in your marketing profile is kept for the duration of our marketing relationship with you; for example, while you continue to use digital touchpoints, or respond to our communications. However, some elements of your marketing profile, such as records of how we interact with you, naturally go out of date after a period of time, so we delete them automatically after defined periods (typically 3 years) as appropriate for the purpose for which we collected them. |
|
This scenario is the same as the above, but if we don’t have any contact with you for a long period (typically 2 years), we will stop sending you product communications and delete your history of responses to them. This will happen, for example, if you never click through to an invitation to an event, log on to a digital touchpoint, or contact customer care, during that time. The reason is that in these circumstances, we assume you would prefer not to receive the communications. |
|
If you have registered to receive product communications, but the information you give us to contact you doesn’t work, we will retain your details for a period of typically only 6 months to allow you to return and correct it. |
|
If you commence registering yourself in a database, but do not complete the process (for example, if you don’t complete the age verification process, or you don’t accept the touchpoint’s terms of use), we will retain your details for only 6 months to allow you to return and complete the process. |
|
If you are not registered with us for other purposes (e.g. product communications, warranty, customer care), and we use publicly available information about you in order to understand the market or your preferences, we will retain the information about you for a short period in order to perform the particular item of market research. |
|
If you contact customer care, we will make a record of the matter (including details of your enquiry and the response) and retain it while it remains relevant, for example if you need a replacement of a device under warranty, or if your recent enquiries are relevant. Temporary records (for example, an automated recording of a telephone call in which you ask us to direct you to a retail outlet) may be relevant only until more permanent records are made, and will be retained only temporarily. |
|
System audit logs are retained typically for a period of only a few months. |
|
