Loovent uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”), on our website. The information generated by the cookie pertaining to your use of this website is usually transmitted to and stored on a server operated by Google located within the United States. If IP anonymization is enabled on this website, Google will, however, shorten your IP address within member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transferring it to the United States. Your complete IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. Google then uses this data on behalf of this website’s owner to analyze your use of the website, create reports that show and explain user activity on this website and to provide additional services associated with the use of the website and internet use to the website owner. The IP address transmitted from your browser to Google Analytics is not combined with any other data from Google.
To prevent processing by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. This add-on is compatible with all major browsers and can be downloaded and installed via the Google Analytics Opt-Out page: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
