Type of Information Collected

Every computer connected to the internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers that serve as that computer’s “Internet Protocol” (IP address).  When a visitor requests a page from a website, the web server may record that visitor’s domain name and IP address.  The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site.  We may use this information to examine traffic in aggregate.

From time to time our website may save a “cookie” on your computer.
