Optional audience measurement

Google Analytics 4 helps understand which public pages and radio tools are used. The Google tag loads only after you explicitly accept analytics. Rejecting it does not prevent you from using the site.

Information measured

The integration uses canonical page addresses without query strings or fragments, descriptive page titles and the selected language. Google Analytics also uses browser and device information, timestamps and cookie identifiers to produce usage statistics. Connecting to Google necessarily transmits network information, including your IP address; this notice does not promise anonymity.

Information excluded

We deliberately exclude callsigns, entered Maidenhead locators, searches, filters, free text, email addresses and other user-entered values from analytics. Advertising signals and ad personalization are disabled in the integration.

Cookies and browser storage

The consent choice and its date are stored locally under ea1rek-analytics-consent-v1 for up to 180 days. Invalid, expired or unavailable storage prevents analytics activation. After acceptance, Google Analytics may create _ga and _ga_* cookies for browser identification and session measurement. The integration configures a 180-day cookie lifetime without renewing it on each visit. Language and appearance preferences are stored separately by the site; they do not require Analytics. Clearing browser storage removes saved choices.

Change or withdraw consent

Use Consent preferences in the footer at any time. Rejecting analytics stops the integration, removes accessible Analytics cookies and reloads an active page to unload the Google tag. Other open tabs respond to the changed consent. Withdrawal prevents subsequent measurement; it does not erase data already received by Google. Contact us for privacy questions or requests concerning previously collected data.

Google and international processing

Google provides Analytics and may process information on servers outside your country, including outside the EU/EEA. Google describes its processing and international transfer safeguards in the linked policies. This site does not guarantee a specific processing country.
