Google Analytics will associate the visitation information it collects from services of DS Smith with Google information from accounts of signed-in users who have consented to this association for the purpose of ad personalization.

This information is collected under a service called “Google Signals”, which is also a service of Google. With this information, Google Signals compiles for us multi-platform data reports on Google users that have enabled personalised advertising in their Google accounts.

This Google information may include end user location, search history, YouTube history, and data from websites that partner with Google—and is used to provide aggregated and anonymized insights into users’ cross device behaviours.

Your data may be accessed and/or deleted by end users via My Activity.  If you want more information about the data that Google collects on this website, you can visit the Privacy Policy of Google.
