Automatic registration of session data
We automatically record generic information about your computer’s connection to the Internet, which we call “session data”. Session data consists of such things as the IP address, the operating system and type of browser software used, and the activities performed by the user while on our site. An IP address is a number that allows computers connected to the Internet, such as our web servers, to know where to send data to the user, such as which pages of the site the user wants to view. We collect session data because it helps us analyze things like what visitors are most likely to click on, how visitors click on the site, how many visitors browse the various pages of the site, how long they stay on the site, and how often they visit the site. It also helps us diagnose problems with our servers and allows us to better administer our systems. It is possible to determine from an IP address the Internet Service Provider (ISP) of a visitor and the approximate geographic location of their point of connectivity. We may also use some session data, such as the pages you have visited on our site, to send you e-mail messages, unless you have previously opted out of receiving such messages.
