Though Google Analytics records data such as your device, Internet browser, operating system and geographical location, none of this information is personally identifiable to us.
Google Analytics also records your computer's IP address, which could be used to personally identify you, but Google Analytics does not grant us access to this information.

Subsequently, any requests for the retrieval of personally identifiable data that is recorded and stored by Google Analytics should be submitted directly to Google.

We consider Google Analytics to be a Third-Party Data Processor.
