Information about Google Analytics service
The Website uses the Google Analytics service to record its traffic. Google Analytics, which relies on the use of cookies, is the most popular service for collecting and analysing data about the behaviour of visitors to websites on the internet. The purpose of using the Google Analytics service is to process data in order to optimize the Website, such as which page we need to improve and in what way in order to make it more usable, but also to conduct a cost/benefit analysis for the display of advertisements.
Cookies are used to store certain information, such as IP address, access time, browser type, the location from which the access took place and the frequency of visits to the Website by the visitor. If you also use other Google services, it is possible that this data will be processed by Google in combination to compile your user profile for the purpose of displaying personalised advertisements. We have no control or influence over Google’s methods and policies regarding the processing of your data by Google. If you wish, you can obtain more information about Google’s data processing policy for your data within the Analytics service here.
As part of the Google Analytics service, the Website uses the “Anonymize IP” feature provided by Google. With this application, your IP address is restricted by Google and anonymised when you access the Website. This measure is preferred by EU data protection supervisory authorities as best practice in the context of appropriate technical measures to protect your data.
Finally, you have the option to block the collection of your data via Google Analytics altogether by installing theplug-in in your browser.

In addition to this, the logs also help us to record the type of browser and operating system you use and other information about your online visit, such as the URL from which you accessed the Website, the date and time of your visit.
This data is stored only for the time strictly necessary to ensure the security of networks, information and services against accidental events or illegal or malicious actions that compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of the stored or transmitted data (e.g. to control “denial of service” attacks).
