Privacy Policy

This website (andreaazzola.com) uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect information about visits and usage patterns. The purpose is to understand how visitors interact with the site and to improve the content offered.

Data Collected

  • Pages visited and time spent on the site
  • Browser, operating system, and device type (reported in aggregate)
  • Approximate geographic area (no precise location data)

IP anonymization is enabled by default in GA4, so personal IP addresses are not stored in full.

Use of Cookies

Google Analytics sets cookies to enable tracking of visits. The Google Analytics script is loaded only after acceptance through the analytics banner. The choice is stored in this browser for up to 180 days. If browser storage is unavailable, the choice cannot be remembered across pages. Declining or withdrawing consent also clears accessible first-party Google Analytics cookies.

These controls apply to Google Analytics. Historical articles may contain embedded media or external links from other providers; their services have their own privacy policies.

Third Parties

The data collected are processed by Google Ireland Limited. For more details, please refer to Google Privacy Policy.

How to Opt-Out

Visitors can:

  • Decline analytics through the banner, or use Cookie settings in the footer to change or withdraw consent. Withdrawing consent disables Google Analytics and reloads the page.
  • Delete or block cookies in their browser settings
  • Use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on
