Data processing for web analysis
We use the services of the following providers for the processing of data for the purpose of web analysis:

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser will not be associated with any other data held by Google.
