Google may process technical information associated with that request according to its own privacy practices.

The information processed by Google Analytics is subject to Google’s applicable privacy policies and settings.

08 — Data Security
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no website, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
