The information generated by the cookie about the visitors’ use of the website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

On this website, IP anonymisation has been activated. The IP addresses of Google users from European Union member states, or from other states contracting to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, will be shortened. Only in exceptional cases will a complete IP address be transferred to a Google server in the United States and shortened there. On behalf of Sustainable Aylesbury, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating the website for Sustainable Aylesbury, in order to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage for Sustainable Aylesbury.

Google will not associate the IP address transferred in the context of Google Analytics with any other data held by Google. For further information please visit https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

The legal basis for enabling Google Analytics is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 (a) GDPR). Google Analytics will only be activated if you explicitly allow it.

This website uses “Google Signals”.

When using Google Signals aggregated data from website users who are logged into their Google account and who have activated “Ads Personalization” in their Google account is included in Google Analytics reports.

Google account users can control their advertisement experience and can deactivate “Ads Personalization” at any time in their Google account settings.
