Links received in promotional email communications also contain this ID. With the data obtained in this way, we create a user profile in order to better tailor the promotional email communication to your interests. In doing so, we record when you read our emails, which links you click on in them and infer your personal interests from this. We may link this data to actions you have taken on our website.
