We use Google Analytics cookies to measure how OnlinePARE is used and which type of devices are used to access it. The data collected through Google Analytics is anonymised, meaning that any personal identifiers such as your full IP address are removed before the information is processed and stored. This ensures that your individual browsing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. This allows us to optimise OnlinePARE for the most commonly used devices. Analytics data is encrypted and identifiers are pseudonymised so they cannot be easily linked back to a specific, identifiable person.
