WEBSITE ANALYTICS
The AZ FLASH Study Website uses Fathom Analytics, a web analytics service to help the web team analyse how visitors use the site. Fathom Analytics utilises IP address anonymisation by way of User Signature Salt & Hash method. A Salt & Hash method is a one-way process that scrambles data into a series of numbers and letters. This is a way of analysing an individual visitor’s use while preserving their anonymity. For further information on your data journey with Fathom Analytics: https://usefathom.com/data. Fathom Analytics does not use cookies.
AGGREGATE DATA
We will combine the analytics information with information from other visitors to the AZ FLASH Website to create Aggregate Data that do not contain any uniquely identifying information. We will share this Aggregate Data with the sponsor of the AZ FLASH Study, and/or its consultants. We will periodically analyse these Aggregate Data and use what we learn to make improvements to the AZ FLASH Website. We may also share the Aggregate Data with our partners to assist them in better designing their websites for clinical research studies.
