The data generated by cookies about use of the Website by the User (including the IP address) are transmitted to and stored on the Google servers. Google uses these data to analyse Site navigation behaviours and provide the Data Controller with reports about visits to the Site. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required by law or if these third parties handle the aforementioned information on behalf of Google.
