If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not expired, Google and the website operator may recognize that you clicked on the ad and were directed to that page. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics. This tells the website operator the total number of users who clicked on an ad and were directed to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag and/or performed various actions on the page. However, the Website Operator will not receive any information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly (deactivation option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

Google is also required to delete the data regularly (currently every 39 months).
