Google Conversion Tracking is an analytical service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google").
  2. When a user accesses a website through a Google advertisement, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on their computer. The validity of these cookies is limited, and they do not contain any personal data, making the user non-identifiable.
  3. If the user browses certain pages of the website while the cookie is still valid, both Google and the data controller can see that the user clicked on the ad.

  5. The information obtained through conversion tracking cookies is used to create conversion statistics for customers who have opted for AdWords conversion tracking. This allows customers to learn about the number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, no information that could identify any individual user is accessible.
  6. If you do not want to participate in conversion tracking, you can refuse it by disabling the installation of cookies in your browser. In that case, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
