United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a
Google server in the US and shortened there. Google will use this information
on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website,
to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services regarding
website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. The IP address
transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with
any other data held by Google.

protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

from Google and third-party visitor data. This collected data cannot be
attributed to any specific individual person. You can disable this feature at
any time by adjusting the ads settings in your Google account or you can forbid
the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section
