Cookie Policy
In line with European legislation, MyHerbal.ch wants every visitor to the website to understand what cookies are and why they are used, so that they can make an informed choice about accepting them or not.
A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number, transferred by the website to the computer's hard disk through an anonymous code that can identify the computer but not the user, and can passively monitor activity on the website.
- Strictly necessary cookies
- Performance cookies
- Functional cookies
- Profiling cookies
This website uses only the first three categories of cookie, for which no consent is required.
1. Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are essential for navigating the website and using its functions, such as access to certain protected areas. Without these cookies, some requested functions — signing in to the website, or creating an online shopping cart — could not be provided.
2. Analytical cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use the website, for example which pages are visited most often and whether visitors receive error messages from them. These cookies collect no information that identifies an individual visitor. All the information they gather is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is used only to improve how the website works.
These cookies can be treated as “technical cookies” when they are either (i) used directly by the website administrator to collect information in aggregated form, or (ii) managed by third parties using specific means to reduce the website's ability to identify users (for example by masking a substantial part of the IP address), and when the third party uses them exclusively to provide the service. For instance, they store cookie data separately, without cross-referencing it or enriching it with other available personal data.
3. Functional cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember the choices a visitor makes (such as your user name, your language or the geographic area you live in), in order to optimise and provide enhanced functions. They can also be used to provide functions you have asked for, such as playing a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies gather can be anonymous, and they must not track a visitor's navigation and activity on other websites.
These cookies may also be referred to as technical cookies.
The cookies described above are defined as persistent, and their lifetime is set by the server at the moment they are created.
Managing your cookie settings
Some of the cookies used on our websites are set by us, while others are set by third parties who provide services on our behalf.
Third-party cookies
Some third-party cookies are set by services embedded in our pages. They are managed by the operators of that service and are not under our control. We invite visitors to review the privacy policy and the instructions for deleting the cookies set by these services, at the links given in the sections below. Third parties bear full responsibility for third-party cookies.
MyHerbal.ch takes no responsibility for the content and cookies of external links, which the respective operators may change without prior notice. Myherbal.ch makes third-party cookie information and links to third-party information available to visitors.
Google Analytics cookies
MyHerbal.ch contains components delivered by Google Analytics, a web traffic analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). These are third-party cookies, collected and managed in aggregated form to monitor and improve the performance of our websites (analytical cookies).
By default, Google Analytics uses cookies to collect and analyse information about user behaviour on the website, including their IP address. This information is collected by Google Analytics, which processes it to produce reports on user activity on the website. This website: (i) uses anonymisation by masking the IP address, so that Google Analytics removes the last 8 digits of the user's IP address before the data is stored or used (for more, see the anonymisation of “IP in Google Analytics”, or visit Google's security and privacy information); (ii) does not use Google's analysis tool, and does not allow third parties, to track or collect sensitive information or data. The use of these cookies is subject to contractual restrictions with Google, which oblige Google to use these cookies only to provide the service, to store them separately, and not to “enrich” or “cross-reference” them with other available information. On that point,MyHerbal.ch states that no additional Google Analytics services are used.
