“With these real time personalizations, retailers can serve recommendations that better match their visitor’s current mission. With this technology, retailers do not need to collect user’s personal data and respect the growing concerns consumers have on their data privacy,” said ViSenze Head of Product, Diogo Quintas.
Personalization has been a proven retail strategy, but these rely heavily on using privacy-intrusive personal data, which puts consumers and retailers at odds. Also, traditional recommendation engines often rely upon long-term user profiles or lifetime user behavior, which limits providing relevant recommendations to first-time and early-visit users and when acquiring new users.

“Personalization is becoming more important for shoppers. So is privacy and ensuring trust in user data collection. Our solution balances personalization and privacy by giving retailers a new ability to offer unique and relevant recommendations to shoppers based on their sessions.” said ViSenze CEO and Co-Founder Oliver Tan.
