We consider Google to be a third party data processor (see section 5 below).

Google Analytics uses cookies, details of which can be found on Google’s developer guides. Our website uses the analytics.js implementation of Google Analytics. Disabling cookies on your internet browser will stop Google Analytics from tracking any part of your visit to pages within this website.
