The site uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies” to help the publisher analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about the user’s use of the site (including the user’s IP address from which the last byte is truncated with the “_anonymizeIp()” method) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating how the user uses the site, compiling reports on the site activity for the publisher and website operators and providing other services relating to website activity 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 user’s IP address with any other data held by Google.

By using the site, the user consents to the processing of data about the user by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above. If this is not the case, the user should adapt his or her cookies settings as explained below.

Google Conversion Tracking

The publisher uses the advertising platform Google Ads, a service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), to promote its business by displaying ads on Google’s own and affiliated websites. In order to measure the success of and optimize those advertising campaigns, the publisher makes use of Google conversion-tracking feature. By clicking on one of the publisher’s ads displayed by Google AdWords, a cookie is placed on the user’s device. This cookie expires after 30 days and its purpose is not to personally identify the user. During the validity of the cookie, by visiting the publisher’s website, Google and the publisher are able to associate the originating ad with the users’ visit, which remains otherwise anonymous.

Conversion Tracking allows the publisher to collect statistical and anonymous information about how his advertising campaigns perform. Neither the publisher, Google, nor any third-party Google Ads advertiser will by this be able to personally identify the user.

The user may refuse the use of Google Ads conversion tracking by disabling cookies in his browser. Cf. Cookies Settings below.

Google Ads Remarketing

The publisher uses Google Ads Remarketing, a service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), to advertise the publisher on third-party websites or apps.

This cookie does not contain any personal data and its purpose is not to personally identify the user.

Google Ads Remarketing allows the publisher to tailor its marketing to better suit the user’s needs and only display ads that are relevant to the user.
