Can data collected by gemiusTraffic be used to identify Internet users?
- gemiusTraffic

regarding Internet browsers and the Internet user's computer is collected. This
is used to determine what operating system, screen resolution, color depth,
Internet browser, etc. the web site visitor is using, and to determine where
(city, region or country) the user has connected from. It is impossible to
identify any person on the basis of this data.

actual individuals using the Internet - instead, they represent the Internet
browser used by people to visit a web site. If an individual uses several
browsers or several computers, that individual will have multiple cookies – one
