To analyse your use of amai.com and the Apps, we use Google Analytics, the business analytics service provided by Google Inc. located in the United States (“Google”). Google generates statistical information by means of cookies and creates reports about your use of amai.com and the Apps. The cookies served by Google Analytics are anonymous first-party cookies (please refer to section 3 for more information) that do not allow us to identify you in any manner. The information generated by cookies will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
