Only in exceptional cases does the complete IP address get transmitted to and shortened on Google USA servers. On behalf of the website operator, Google uses this information to evaluate website usage, compile activity reports for operators, and provide related services. Google will not associate your IP address with other Google-held data. You may refuse cookies by selecting appropriate browser settings. However, this may limit complete website functionality. Additionally, you can prevent Google’s data collection (cookies and IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.
