usability of our website. In other words, we use analytics data in concert with
data about our online ads that have been shown using the Google Display

pages, such as embedded Facebook feeds. The social networks, such as Facebook,
Google, etc. may themselves also put cookies on your machine. If a user logs
into Facebook, Twitter or Google+ via our website, they will leave a cookie on
the users' computer. This is the same process as if the user logs into these
social networks directly.

Services are used. Google Analytics uses performance cookies to track
customer’s interactions. For example, by using cookies, Google can tell us
which pages our users view, which are most popular, what time of day our
websites are visited, whether visitors have been to our websites before, what
website referred the visitor to our websites, and other similar information.
All of this information is anonymized.
We suggest that you should check the respective privacy policies for these
external services to help you understand what data these organisations hold
about you and how they process it.
