Section 05
Optional website and Assistant analytics
KIBOPC uses Google Analytics to measure website traffic and understand how visitors use the website. KIBOPC may also use first-party Kibo Assistant analytics to count Assistant openings, tool choices and exit stages and to store sanitised question wording, the corresponding Assistant answer, helpful or unhelpful feedback and the next Assistant action for improving answers and request logic. Common email addresses, phone numbers, links and order or ticket identifiers are removed before storage. Question and answer text is not sent to Google Analytics and Assistant analytics is scheduled for deletion after 90 days. A random session identifier may be held in session storage only for the current browser tab so related anonymous Assistant events can be counted; it is not used as a customer account or persistent visitor profile. Optional analytics is not strictly necessary and is enabled only after you consent. Google Analytics may use cookies such as _ga and _ga_* and may involve transfers outside the EEA subject to appropriate safeguards. You can reject optional analytics and still use the website, configurator, quote requests, checkout and Kibo Assistant.
