An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.

In addition, Google Analytics supports an optional browser add-on that – once installed and enabled – disables measurement by Google Analytics for any site a user visits. Note that this add-on only disables Google Analytics measurement.
