Website usage tracking

CHT uses Google Analytics, including Google Analytics Advertising Features, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google").

Advertising

CHT also uses third party companies to implement remarketing efforts. This is a type of online targeting that allows us to send relevant display advertisements. It works by placing a cookie or pixel on the web browser of a user who has previously visited our website, Facebook or Instagram pages. These cookies and pixels track the user’s click and conversion activity and provides display ads across other websites they visit. CHT will only monitor the performance of these ads and does not sell or have access to personally identifiable information. You can learn more about this type of targeting and choose to opt-out here.
