Recolize uses the so called conversion conversion tracking to determine, which articles were bought over the personalized recommendations by your customers. Therewith we have a powerful tool to optimize your recommendation configuration in the Recolize Tool and to generate more revenue with your product recommendations.

A sale will only be counted as Recolize conversion when a user clicked exactly the bought product in a recommendation widget.

The sale of an article will be tracked as Recolize conversion when it is in a close temporal connection to an interaction with a recommendation.

Recolize only tracks the information for bought articles and of course no personal data of your customer like addresses, email address etc.

For generating personalized recommendations Recolize creates pseudonymous user profiles, which exclusively can be connected to an end user with a correspondent cookie on the system of the end user and are only usable on your own website respectively your own domain. This cookie contains a randomly generated user id and can be deactivated with the Recolize Opt-out by the website visitor. Please add a correspondent advise to your privacy policy.
Recolize Recommendations also work with active Opt-out without any issues. Then non-personalized products are delivered, that is only product-based cross sells and best sellers, which increase the conversion rate of your website.

To integrate the Recolize Opt-out, you just have to add the following link to your privacy policy. This link is working completely automatically and displays the appropriate text depending on the current Recolize Opt-out status of the website visitor:

<a class="recolizeOptOut" href="#" onclick="return false;" data-activate-opt-out-text="Activate Opt-out" data-deactivate-opt-out-text="Deactivate Opt-out"></a>

Please replace the colored text parts with your individual texts if you want to. The text will automatically switch:

• “Activate Opt-out”: this text will be displayed if the Recolize Opt-out is not active. With clicking on the link, the Recolize Opt-out will be activated and the link text will switch to “Deactivate Opt-out”.
• “Deactivate Opt-out”: this text will be displayed if the Recolize Opt-out is already active. With clicking on the link, the Recolize Opt-out will be deactivated and the link text will switch to “Activate Opt-out”.

Of course clicks from bots like the Google Bot are automatically excluded and you won’t be charged of them.
