Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the website from which the embedded content originates.

Google Analytics

gknposten.no uses Google Analytics – a web analysis service provided by Google, Inc. The tool provides us with statistical reports we use to analyze and improve the usability of our website.

In order to measure the use of the website, Google Analytics collects information via cookies. These are text files stored in the browser’s memory of those who visit the website. These provide us with information about, for example, the type of browser you use, how you found our website, and which subpages you visited.

Google Analytics also collects the IP addresses of the users of the website. An IP address is a unique identifier that is assigned to each individual device that connects to the Internet. Google Analytics needs to retrieve this information in order to distinguish users from each other. After collection, the IP addresses are anonymised so that website visitors cannot be traced back to a specific piece of hardware or individual.
