This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data from third-party providers. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time. This can be done via the ad settings in your Google account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the section “Objection to data collection.”
