PERSONAL INFORMATION THIS WEBSITE COLLECTS AND WHY WE COLLECT IT

Website traffic monitoring
Like most websites, this one uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user activity. We use this data to determine the number of people using our website, to better understand how they find and use our websites, and to see their journey through the website.

Although GA records data such as your geographic location, device, web browser and operating system, none of this information makes you personally identifiable to us.

Instead, this data will be sent to us in an email message via SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).

Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL) security protocol, which means that email content is encrypted before it is sent over the internet. Email content is decrypted by our local computers and devices.
