Google AdWords
Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The company that operates the Google AdWords service is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you visit our website through an ad served by Google, Google AdWords will place a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad served by Google.
If the user visits certain pages on our site and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can tell that the user clicked on the ad and was directed to that page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across AdWords advertisers’ websites. The information collected by the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for advertisers who have opted into conversion tracking. Advertisers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they will not receive any personally identifiable information about those users.
