Inflation in the Czech Republic has decelerated to 1.5 percent, although inflation within the services sector continues to be a point of concern, remaining at a high level. This economic indicator suggests a cooling of price increases across the broader economy, but persistent high inflation in services points to ongoing pressures in that specific sector.
The article also delves into the operational aspects of the iDNES.cz website, detailing the available advertising models and subscription packages for users. It presents two primary options: a free service supported by targeted advertising, and a premium subscription, iDNES Premium, which offers an ad-free experience along with access to additional content from related publications.
For users opting for the free, ad-supported model, the website explains the process of targeted advertising. This involves profiling user habits and interests based on their online activity to display relevant advertisements. The system utilizes cookies and other online identifiers, with data processed by MAFRA, a.s., and its 125 advertising partners. Users have the ability to manage or withdraw their consent for targeted advertising at any time, though doing so may prompt a transition to the premium subscription service.
The platform also clarifies that certain data processing, not related to targeted advertising, is based on legitimate interest. Users can adjust their privacy settings and raise objections to data processing based on this interest. The article emphasizes that the chosen settings will apply across iDNES.cz, Lidovky.cz, Expres.cz, and Antiyoutuber.cz. It further outlines various data processing purposes, including measuring ad performance, understanding audience demographics, developing services, and ensuring technical site operations, all while adhering to privacy regulations.
