Definition of Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data stored on or accessed from your device when you visit one of our Sites. You can choose which cookies you would like to have placed on your device, following the process outlined in this document.
Our Sites use both first-party Cookies, which are controlled by Coloplast, and third-party Cookies, which are controlled by parties other than Coloplast. First-party Cookies create information that is collected by Coloplast, but which may be subsequently shared with third parties as described in this document. Third-party Cookies create information that is directly collected by third parties. To learn more about how third parties collect and use information, please refer to their privacy policies.
Although each device you use to browse the web will have its own Cookies, Coloplast or third parties may be able to track your visits across multiple devices if you choose to use Cookies on multiple devices.
Some of the disclosures of information associated with these technologies may be deemed "sales" under certain local country laws as we may receive valuable consideration for disclosing personal data. To opt out of sales or certain types of targeted advertising please refer to Your Choices to Withdraw or Change your Consent to Use of Cookies below.
Purpose of Cookies
Cookies are used to identify you and your interests, to remember your preferences, and to track your use of our Sites. We also use Cookies to control access to certain content on our Sites, protect the Sites, and to process any requests that you make of us.

These third-party service providers use persistent Cookies to help us improve the user experience, manage our Site content, and analyze how users navigate and utilize the Sites.
Coloplast and third parties may use the information collected by Cookies to tailor content and advertisements, enable social media functionality, and analyze our Site traffic. Your activity data on our Site may be shared with third party service providers in social media, advertising, and analytics, who might integrate this information with other data you have supplied to them or which they have gathered from your use of their services.
