The information acquired through Google Analytics related to your use of the SCI Manitoba website (including IP address) is shared with Google, and the information is then processed to compile statistical reports on website activity for use solely by SCI Manitoba. We generate Google Analytics reports so that we know how many people visit our site, the geographical region they are from, which pages they view on our site, and what browsers and operating systems they are using to access our site. The information is grouped into statistics, so individuals are not identified in statistical reports. The information is used to improve the function and utility of our website.
