Koko Analytics is operated within our own WordPress installation. Statistical data is stored on our own web server and is not transmitted to an external analytics service.
We expressly use Koko Analytics in cookieless mode.

The data will be deleted once it is no longer required to process your enquiry and provided that no statutory retention obligations apply.
