Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analysis is the gathering, collection, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites.

A web analysis is mainly used to optimize a website and for the cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

We will also store comments or reviews if you choose to leave them.
