Web Analytics
In common with most websites, we use a system to measure the amount of traffic to our site. We use Google Analytics for this, along with tracking in .
These allow us to understand things like how many people have viewed our site in a given period, how often people visit and what the most popular types of content are. We use this information to help us improve the site in lots of ways. For example, we may realise something we think is a particularly good bit of content is not being viewed as often as we would expect, we may then decide to make that content more easy to find via the site navigation options.
While the information processed through Google Analytics is anonymous, in theory through Salesforce we are able to track your activity on the site from the links you click on provided in email campaigns along with the information you provide to us.
