Let Meta (Facebook and Instagram) measure how our ads perform, using the Meta Pixel. Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. receives the pages you visit and, when you confirm the email address of a new account, a "completed registration" event, together with browser identifiers and your IP address. Meta's automatic advanced matching also reads contact details you type into forms on our site, such as your email address or name, hashes them in your browser and sends them with these events so Meta can match them to a Facebook or Instagram account. Hashed details are still personal data. These events are sent from your browser and may also be forwarded to Meta through Meta's Conversions API Gateway. Our own server also sends page visits and completed-registration events directly to Meta's Conversions API, with your IP address, browser user agent and Meta browser identifiers, so Meta can count it once. To help Meta match these visits, your browser and our server also send a random visitor ID from our own cookie and, if you are signed in, your account ID, your confirmed email address and the name, city, postal code and country saved in your profile, all hashed first. We and Meta are joint controllers for collecting and sending this data, and Meta's further use, which may include processing in the USA, is described in the Meta Privacy Policy. When this is off, the Meta Pixel is not loaded and no page visit or registration event is sent to Meta. Together with analytics cookies, this choice also lets Google receive hashed contact details, as described under Analytics cookies.
