Passively Collected Information

When a user visits our website, some information such as the visitor’s Internet protocol (IP) address, Internet service provider, operating system, the site from which the visitor arrived, and the time and date of the user’s visit may be collected automatically as part of the software operation of the website. This intake of information is not personally identifiable. If we use this information, it will be solely for internal purposes, such as, to see what part of our website is most frequently visited or how long a user stays on each page, in order to improve the site. Additionally, we may use Google Analytics, a web metrics service, to collect certain information automatically upon a user’s visit. For more information regarding Google Analytics, see Google's privacy policy.
