Use of the WP Statistics Analytics Tool
This website uses the WP Statistics analytics tool by Verona Labs to analyze visitor traffic. The purpose of data collection and analysis is to continuously improve our website and its offerings.
WP Statistics allows for the creation of general statistics about website visitors. For instance, it can measure how many people visited a specific page and what percentage of them used a smartphone.
The statistics are based on data that is necessarily transmitted to establish a connection between your web browser and our web server (see log data). WP Statistics does not use cookies.
Protecting your privacy and personal data is our top priority. WP Statistics does not collect any additional visitor data. Instead, it anonymizes visitors’ IP addresses before storage, ensuring that personal identification is not possible, even retrospectively.
