Google Analytics is a web analytics tool that helps website owners understand and analyse user interactions on their website. It collects data about website visits, including information about how users reach a website (e.g. via search engines, social media or directly), how they navigate the website, which pages they visit and how long they stay on these pages. This information is then presented in various reports that provide insights into user behaviour and enable website operators to optimise their website and improve the user experience. The data is also used for personalisation and to effectively control advertisements.
