Data Storage and Security

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) collects and stores analytics data to provide insights on website usage. GA4 automatically anonymizes IP addresses by default, ensuring no full IP address is logged or stored. Data regarding user interactions, such as visit timestamps, language preferences, and referral sources, are collected in compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR. Google retains analytics data for a limited period, typically up to 14 months, after which the data is automatically deleted to protect user privacy. Google employs robust security measures to protect collected data, including encryption, access controls, and strict data access policies to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification. Data is stored in secure Google data centers with continuous monitoring to ensure data integrity and confidentiality.
