6. COOKIES, GOOGLE ANALYTICS AND SOCIAL PLUG-INS

allocates an identification to the browser of the user of a WEBSITE which the user saves and
shows upon request. On the one hand, SWAROVSKI uses session cookies which are
automatically erased when the user closes the WEBSITE and which enable the server to
establish a stable connection to the user (so that the content of a shopping basket is not lost, for
example) as long as he or she browses on the WEBSITE. On the other hand, SWAROVSKI
also uses permanent cookies which are only erased after a period defined per WEBSITE.
Permanent cookies allow the saving of certain settings (e.g. language) for several sessions or
allow for an automated log-in. The user consents to the application of permanent cookies
through the use of the WEBSITE and the respective functions (e.g. language settings and
automated log-in). The user may block or delete the application of cookies on his or her browser
but this activity may impair the use of the WEBSITE.

In accordance with applicable law, SWAROVSKI may install coding in newsletters and other
marketing email which allow it to determine if the recipient has opened an email or downloaded
pictures contained in the email. However, the recipient may block this application in his/her
email application. In any case he/she consents to the application of this technology by way of
receiving newsletters or other marketing related emails.

In the event that SWAROVSKI places advertisements of third parties on the WEBSITE (e.g.
banners) or places an own ad on the website of a third party, cookies from companies
specializing in the use of such advertisement may be employed. SWAROVSKI will not disclose
personal data to such companies, i.e. they shall only place a permanent cookie with users of the
WEBSITE in order to recognize users and do so in the sole interest of SWAROVSKI. This

party websites (e.g. in connection with products for which these individuals showed an interest
in the online-shop). SWAROVSKI will not disclose personal data to the operators of external
websites.

SWAROVSKI may use Google Analytics or similar services on its WEBSITE. These
applications are third party services which allow SWAROVSKI to measure and analyze the use

disclose any personal data to the service provider (who will also not save any IP addresses).
The service provider may, however, monitor the use of the WEBSITE by the user and combine
this data with data from other websites monitored by the same service provider which the user
has visited and the service provider may use these findings for its own benefits (e.g. control of
advertisement). The service provider knows the identity of the user who has registered with the
service provider. In this case the processing of personal data will be the service provider's
responsibility and data shall be processed pursuant to data protection and privacy laws and
according to the data protection policies of the service provider (for Google see
policies.google.com/privacy). The service provider will provide data on the use of the
WEBSITE to SWAROVSKI.

In addition, SWAROVSKI may use plug-ins from social media networks such as Facebook,
Twitter, Youtube, Google+, Pinterest or Instagram on its WEBSITE. In the default setting of
the WEBSITE plug-ins are deactivated; the user can thus choose when to activate them. Should
the user do so, the social media providers are able to establish a direct connection to the user
during his or her visit on the WEBSITE, which allows the provider to be aware of the user's
visit and may analyze the respective information. The subsequent processing of the personal
data will be conducted in the responsibility of the social media provider pursuant to data
protection and privacy laws and according to its data protection policies published on its website
(such as www.facebook.com/; www.twitter.com/; www.youtube.com/; www.google.co m/;
www.pinterest.com/; www.instagram.com/).

Members on the application form: date of birth as well as interests (e.g. in Jewellery and
Accessories, Home and Style, Wedding, Figures and Collectables and/or Watches) (“Fo rm

form of items purchased (product designation, price, discount), place and time of purchase and
membership number. The purchase history is recorded if the Be Swarovski membership number
is communicated at the checkout for purchases in stores participating in Be Swarovski. In the

making a purchase or the Member makes a purchase when logged into an online account
associated with a Be Swarovski membership. SWAROVSKI also collects and saves all
vouchers sent to the Be Swarovski Member. Where SWAROVSKI believes that two differe nt
Be Swarovski Memberships belong to the same individual, or where a valid request is received,

membership benefits in the form of Discount or Loyalty Gift vouchers. Based on the data saved
in the purchase history, SWAROVSKI evaluates what type of voucher the Member is granted.

respective WEBSITE or through the link indicated in every mailing or message.

other information voluntarily disclosed to SWAROVSKI by the Be Swarovski Member,
SWAROVSKI may personalize the information sent to the Member so that the Member
particularly receives, where possible, information which SWAROVSKI seems interesting for
