We use the information we receive from Google Analytics™ only to improve our own Website. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics™ with Personal Information. Although Google Analytics™ plants a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics™ about your visits to the Site is restricted by the Google Analytics’™ Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
