Information about Google Analytics

The Website uses the Google Analytics service to record its traffic. Google Analytics, which relies on the use of cookies, is the most popular service for collecting and analyzing data on the behavior of website visitors on the Internet. The purpose of using the Google Analytics service is to process data in order to optimize the Website, such as which page we need to improve and in what way in order to make it more user-friendly, but also to conduct a cost/benefit analysis for displaying advertisements.

Cookies are used to store certain information, such as the IP address, access time, browser type, the location from which the access was received and the frequency of visits to the Website by the visitor. With each visit to the Website, this data is transmitted to a Google server in the United States of America, which may also be accessed by other Google services, as well as government authorities based on US law. If you also use other Google services, it is possible that this data is processed in combination by Google to create a profile of you as a user for the purpose of displaying personalized advertisements. We have no control or influence over Google's methods and policies regarding the processing of your data on its behalf. If you wish, you can obtain more information about the policy for processing your data by Google within the framework of the Analytics service here.

Important note: In July 2020, the Court of Justice of the European Union declared invalid the European Commission Decision 2016/1250 on the adequacy of the protection provided by the European Union-United States Privacy Shield (known as Privacy Shield). Until this decision was issued, the transfer of personal data to the United States, including the transfer in the case of Google Analytics, was based on this adequacy decision. This processing is now based on Google's standard data protection clauses (Article 46 of the General Data Protection Regulation) and, in the alternative, on your explicit consent, in accordance with the terms of Article 49(1)(b) of the GDPR, given the absence of an adequacy decision.

As part of the Google Analytics service, the Website uses the “Anonymize IP” feature provided by Google. With this application, your IP address is limited by Google and anonymized when you access the Website. This measure is recommended by EU data protection supervisory authorities as best practice in the context of appropriate technical measures to protect your data.

Finally, you have the option to completely block the collection of your data through Google Analytics by installing the plug-in in your browser.

C. Log Files

Due to the nature and way the internet works, as soon as you visit the Website, our server records your IP address in a special log file, which constitutes personal data, even if we are not able to identify you ourselves based on this element.

In addition, log files also help us record the type of browser and operating system you are using and other information about your online visit, such as the URL from which you arrived at the Website, the date and time of your visit.

This data is stored exclusively for the period strictly necessary to ensure the security of networks, information and services from accidental events or illegal or malicious actions that endanger the availability, authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of stored or transmitted data (e.g. control of "denial of service" attacks).

D. How you can control cookies via browser

You retain the ability to configure the installation of cookies at any time through your browser settings.
