Google Analytics acts solely as our agent, and we determine the purposes for which the data is used. More details about this relationship can be found in the Google Analytics Privacy Policy.
If you do not want your website behavior data to be collected and analyzed by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. This tool instructs Google Analytics not to send your site visit data. It is available for most modern browsers. Please note, however, that this opt-out add-on does not stop data from being sent to our website directly or to other web analytics services.

These companies may collect non-personally identifiable information about your visits to our website and your interaction with our communications, including advertisements.
Retargeting technologies analyze your cookies to display ads based on your previous browsing behavior. For more details about cookies, please see clause 2 of this Policy.
We do not store any personal data about you through this technology.
