Why we use analytics
Google Analytics and Hotjar tell us which pages are read, how visitors move through the site, and where the experience breaks down. This informs how we improve the site. No data collected is sold or shared with advertisers.
To opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all sites, use Google’s opt-out browser add-on. To opt out of Hotjar, visit Hotjar’s opt-out page.
