In addition to data collected through standard Google Analytics, we might also enable data collection for Google Signals, in order to access additional features like cross-device audiences and insights. When Google Signals are enabled, Google Analytics will collect visitation information and associate it with Google information from accounts of signed-in users who have consented to this association for the purpose of ads personalisation. This Google information may include end user location, search history, YouTube history and data from sites that partner with Google – and is used to provide aggregated and anonymised insights into users’ cross device behaviours. |
