This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files stored on your computer that enable it to analyze how you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address, truncated if applicable) is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of this website, compiling reports on website activity for the website operator, and providing other miscellaneous services relating to website and Internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate the IP address transferred by your browser in the context of Google Analytics with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. Provided that you have the necessary system requirements, you can prevent Google from collecting data generated by cookies that relates to your use of the website (including your IP address), and from processing this data, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

In addition, Google Analytics gathers the technical communication data mentioned in Section 4.1, including your IP address.

To facilitate an evaluation by Google Analytics, we have appended so-called UTM parameters to the addresses (URLs) of individual pages of the Website.

The information generated about your use of the Website are typically transmitted to, and stored and processed on, a U.S. server.
