The following information may be collected: IP address, date and time of page access, click path, information about the browser you use and the device you use, pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchase activities. Your data may be linked by Google with other data, such as your search history, your personal accounts, your usage data from other devices, and any other data that Google has about you.
