When someone visits http://schools.southwark.gov.uk/ we collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. We collect this information in a way, which does not identify anyone. We do not attempt to find out the identities of those visiting any of our websites. The information we gather is used to analyse web behaviour and helps us to make improvements to benefit our citizens.

We use Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting which uses data from the Google Display Network. We use aggregate data provided by this service (such as age, gender and interests) to better understand our website audience and adjust our communications appropriately.
