4. Google Tag Manager and Tracking Technologies

Original Sharp uses Google Tag Manager to manage website tracking and measurement technologies.

Google Tag Manager allows us to organize and deploy website tags, including those associated with Google Analytics and other Google marketing services.

Google Tag Manager itself primarily facilitates the operation of other tags. The individual technologies deployed through it may collect or process information about website visitors.

We periodically review our website tracking technologies and seek to use them in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.

Measuring visits generated by advertising campaigns.
Tracking interactions with advertisements.
Understanding which marketing campaigns generate website traffic.
Measuring website conversions and engagement.
Improving advertising relevance and campaign performance.

If personalized advertising or remarketing features are enabled, Google may use information about previous website visits and interactions to help display relevant advertisements, subject to applicable privacy requirements and visitor preferences.

Where applicable, such processing is subject to the service provider’s privacy practices, contractual commitments, and legally required safeguards.

International transfers of personal information will be handled in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
