Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google. It is used by many websites across the world. Google Analytics uses first party cookies through our website to collect standard internet log information and visitor behaviour. This information is sent to Google and is used to evaluate how our website is being used. This enables West Sussex Wellbeing to compile statistical reports. This is very important to us as it allows us to constantly review and improve our sites so that you have a better experience when using them. A full list of cookies used by Google Analytics and explanations on how these work are available on the Google code website.

West Sussex Wellbeing does not collect (nor allow any third party to collect) personally identifiable information of visitors to our site. We will not associate any data gathered with any personally identifying information. We will not link or seek to link an IP address with the identity of a computer user. In short, Google Analytics doesn't identify who you are, but it does track your movements on our websites.

If you choose not to opt out of cookies on our website, Google provide a browser based tool that you can install and use to opt out of all Google Analytics data collection. You can install it from their Google Analytics opt-out page.
