Adobe helps us to process the collected information quantitatively, creates reports on website activities and offers us starting points to improve the surfing experience for you as a customer. In no case can any conclusions be drawn about personal data. Furthermore, Adobe can use the data to provide us with other services related to website and internet usage.
