Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Spectrum Brands (UK) Limited, Regent Mill, Fir Street, Failsworth, Manchester, M35 0HS, United Kingdom, (“we”, “us”, and “our”), use cookies to collect personal data through the website https://uk.remington-europe.com. Further information on how we collect, use, store, and share personal data of website users can also be found in our Privacy Policy.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are automatically created by your browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome) and stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone or similar) when you visit our website. They enable us to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login details. Our website uses cookies to recognise repeated visits by the same user and to distinguish you from other visitors.

Cookies are very useful and perform many different functions. They help improve your experience by tailoring the website to your needs, recognising your preferences, and enhancing overall usability.

There are two types of cookies:

• Session cookies: These exist only for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted once your browser is closed.

• Persistent cookies: These remain on your device after your browser is closed and allow us to recognise you during your next visit. These cookies may also transmit information such as your IP address to facilitate automatic recognition.

Use of a Consent Management Platform

We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform (CMP) on our website, which ensures that cookies and similar technologies are only activated after you have given your consent. The Usercentrics CMP blocks all non-essential cookies and scripts until you give your consent and stores your choices within the legally required granular categories (Strictly Necessary, Analytical or Performance, Functionality, Targeting).

Google Consent Mode v2

Our website uses Google Consent Mode v2, which takes into account the consents you provide through the Usercentrics CMP and adjusts the behaviour of Google services accordingly.

• When consent is given, cookies are set and tracking functions (e.g., Google Analytics 4, Google Ads) are fully activated.

• When consent is refused, no cookies are set; Google receives only so-called “cookieless pings,” which do not allow user identification and are used solely for generating aggregated statistics.

We ensure that all technologies are used solely in accordance with your consent and that the consent states defined by the Usercentrics CMP are technically respected.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 on our website based on your consent provided through our cookie management platform. The responsible service provider within the EU/EEA is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Its legal notice is available at the link provided on our website.

Google Ireland Limited is part of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Both entities are part of Alphabet Inc. Data transfers occur under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (EU-US DPF) pursuant to Art. 45(3) GDPR.

Categories of personal data processed:

• Browser and device information
• Approximate location data
• Session statistics
• User counts

The lawful basis for processing your personal data is your consent.

We use Google Analytics 4 only to the extent that you have given your consent. If you do not provide consent, Google applies Consent Mode v2 and processes data only in the form of non-identifying signals (“cookieless pings”), and no cookies are set.

We additionally use a server-side tracking system (Yireo), which enables data processing via our own server. If you have given consent, pseudonymised usage data may be forwarded to Google through the server-side endpoint. If you do not provide consent, no identifying information is transmitted; in particular, no user IDs, IP addresses or cookies are processed or reconstructed.

Google Analytics 4 uses event data to analyse how visitors use our website and to provide aggregated usage reports. All data is processed strictly in accordance with the level of consent you have selected.

Meta Pixel

We use the Meta Pixel on our website, a service provided by Meta Platforms Limited, 4 Grand Canal Place, 2 CO Dublin, Ireland. The Meta Pixel is used on the basis of your consent, meaning it is only activated if you have agreed to the use of marketing/advertising cookies or similar technologies via our website’s consent management platform.

The Meta Pixel enables us to analyse the effectiveness of advertisements placed on the social network Facebook. When we run advertising campaigns for our products and services on our Facebook page, we aim to show these ads only to users who are genuinely interested in our offerings. The Meta Pixel helps us tailor our marketing efforts to the interests of potential customers. As a result, Facebook users who have consented to the display of personalised advertising may be shown relevant ads. Meta Platforms also uses the data collected through the Meta Pixel for its own analytics and advertising purposes.

If Meta Platforms processes personal data for its own purposes, you can find information regarding the legal basis, retention periods and the exercise of your data subject rights in Meta’s privacy policy.

In order to show our advertisements only to interested individuals as described above, we have implemented the code that enables the Meta Pixel’s functionality on the website you are visiting. The code provided by Meta loads functions that allow Meta Platforms to analyse and measure your interactions when you reach our website via Facebook ads.

Meta may link the collected data to existing user accounts if you are logged in to Facebook or Instagram. However, the evaluations we receive from Meta are available to us only in aggregated form. Meta uses this data solely for advertising purposes. As part of this processing, it makes a difference whether you have a Facebook user account and are logged in on Facebook in your browser.

If you have a Facebook user account and are logged in, your data will automatically be associated with your user account when you visit our website. You can adjust your advertising settings in your Facebook account at any time.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can manage your usage-based advertising preferences and activate or deactivate individual advertising providers by clicking here.

Meta Platforms Limited is part of Meta Platforms, Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025-1452, USA. If personal data is transferred to Meta Platforms, Inc. in the United States, the transfer is based on the adequacy decision of the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (EU-US DPF) of the European Union pursuant to Article 45(3) GDPR.

In addition to browser-based cookies (e.g. the Meta Pixel), we may use secure server-side tracking technologies (such as the Meta Conversions API). These technologies allow us to send limited event data directly from our systems to Meta to improve advertising accuracy and reduce reliance on browser cookies.These technologies are only activated where you have provided consent for targeting cookies.
