Google Analytics: This Website uses Google Analytics, which is a web data analysis tool of Google Inc. (Google). Google Analytics uses cookies to help Us analyse how users use this Website.

We have activated the anonymization of IP-addresses transferred[1] which means Google will (prior to such transfer) truncate/anonymize the last octet of the IP address within Member States of the EEA.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the Website, compiling reports on Website activity for Us and providing other services relating to Website activity and internet usage to Us. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Further information concerning the terms and conditions of use and data privacy can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html. Please note that on this Website, Google Analytics code is supplemented by “anonymizeIp” to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so called IP-masking).
