3.1 World Mantra Day™ indirectly collect a variety of information pertaining to the use of our Site/s.
3.2 Tracking Data
Site traffic volume and patterns, such as the number of visitors to a given Site or page daily, are typically referred to as Tracking Data. This type of indirectly collected information is gathered through various means, such as an IP address, which is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the Web. Web servers, the computers that “serve up” Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When you visit the World Mantra Day™ Site, our servers log your computer’s IP address.
To obtain these Tracking Data, World Mantra Day™ uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help us analyse how users visit and use the World Mantra Day™ Site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the World Mantra Day™ Site (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States and/or other locations. On behalf of us, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use when visiting the World Mantra Day™ Site, compiling reports on Site activity, and providing other services relating to Site activity. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data Google holds. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of the World Mantra Day™ Site.
You can prevent Google’s collection and use of data (including cookies and IP addresses) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en . In the event of IP anonymisation activation, Google will truncate/anonymise the last octet of the IP address for Member States of the European Union, as well as for other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA and/or other locations.
Further information can be found under http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html (Google Analytics Terms of Service & Privacy).
We collect information about the type of browser you are using (for example, Firefox, Edge, Google Chrome or Apple Safari).
Only designated administrators of World Mantra Day™ can access the information gathered by Google Analytics, and the information is only used for administrative and planning purposes to meet the needs of our users, such as to improve the content of the Site and to customise the content and/or layout of the Site for individuals or groups of users.
