Google Analytics and Google Adwords

To analyse its website through cookies, the Controller uses Google Analytics, developed and operated by Google Inc., with a registered office at Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereafter only “Google”).

The analysis through Google Analytics is performed such that the information on the use of the website created through the collection of cookies are transferred to a Google server in th eUSA and then subject to the pertinent analysis. As a result of IP anonymization, which the Controller has set on its website, Google shortens IP addresses before their transfer to a Google server in the USA, and this takes places in one of the member states of the EU or the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and then shortened (anonymized) there.

Google will not transfer data, including shortened IP addresses, connected to other data. You can read Google’s statement on personal data protection.

Website visitors can block the collection of cookies and their analysis through Google Analytics by changing the settings on their browser, as noted above, and then clicking this link, which will place in their browser opt-out cookies, which restrict the future storage of data on visits to the website.

As part of Google Analytics, the Controller also uses related advertising functions provided by Google, including an overview of views in the Google advertising network, expanded reporting of anonymized demographic data (such as age, gender, interests), and placing advertisements on the Display Network based on viewed products (known as remarketing), including Google AdWords to personalize advertisements and improve ad targeting and remarketing. Thanks to this, visitors to our website are offered advertising content that may be the most interesting for them.
