Your IP address is therefore shortened by Google within the European Union before any transfer or storage, ensuring the protection of your anonymity. The data collected is not merged with other Google data.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Additional tools: In order to analyze this performance securely, COUSIN BIOTECH also uses <em>Google Tag Manager<\/em> (tracking script management) and <em>Google BigQuery<\/em> (internal statistical hosting and querying, without advertising cross-referencing).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Legal basis and Transfers: The legal basis for this processing is exclusively your consent (Art. 6(1)a of the GDPR). As Google Ireland Ltd is certified compliant with the EU-US data protection framework (<em>Data Privacy Framework<\/em>), technical transfers of statistical data to Google&#8217;s infrastructure are carried out in full regulatory compliance.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, you can consult <a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy?hl=fr&amp;authuser=2\">Google&#8217;s Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.
