Our Website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, in order to better understand your use of Our Website, and how We can improve the Service. In general, Google Analytics collects information such as visits to a Website, what pages are visited, and what other Website you visited immediately prior to coming to a particular Website. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit a Website, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with other Personal Information identifying you. Although Google Analytics places a long duration cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit a Website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to Our Website is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. Google utilises the data collected to track and examine the use of the Website, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services. Google may use the data collected on Our Website to contextualise and personalise the ads of its own advertising network. To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on Our Website, please review the Google article “How Google uses data when you use Our partners’ sites or apps,” located on Google’s Website or any successor URL.
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signal whereby you may indicate your preference regarding tracking and cross-site tracking. Although We do not currently employ technology that recognises DNT signals, We will only process your Personal Information in accordance with this Policy.
