2.4. Google Analytics
a) These websites use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", text files stored on your computer making it possible to analyse the way you use the websites. As a rule, the information about your use of these websites generated by means of cookies is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymisation is activated on these websites, your IP address is shortened beforehand by Google in countries in the European Union or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the website owner, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the websites, create reports about website activities and provide further services related to website and internet use to the website owner.
