The Analytics and its cookies

The InterConnect project website uses an open-source analytics platform, Matomo (formerly Piwik), fully controlled by the European Commission. This platform enables the protection of end-user personal data thanks to features such as IP address de-identification. On top of that, on this website we have created a feature to manage users’ consent to the collection of users’ browsing experience for anonymised statistics.

Cookies (from Matomo) used by this website allow us to track the following information about visitors. We use this information to prepare aggregated, anonymous statistics reports of visitors’ activity:

  • Screen resolution of user’s device
  • Time in local visitor’s time-zone
  • Files that were clicked and downloaded (Download)
  • Links to an outside domain that were clicked (Outlink)
  • Pages generation time (the time it takes for webpages to be generated by the webserver and then downloaded by the visitor: Page speed)
  • Main language of the browser being used (Accept-Language header)
