This in turn allows optimisation of the content and pages and the marketing programs that drive traffic to the website. Google Analytics does not store any personal information about website visitors, but does use persistent cookies to identify repeat visitors. You may universally opt-out of all Google Analytics tracking used by all websites by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
Gator Leads Cookies

Email Marketing Post-Click Tracking Cookies
These cookies are used to report on the pages that have been viewed by visitors to the site who have followed links from our email marketing campaigns.
