Collection of Non-Personal Information

Whenever you visit a web page on the Internet, your browser automatically identifies the IP address from where your page request was initiated.  It also volunteers certain basic information like browser type, the operating system you are running, and in some cases the page from which you referred to the Site.  The Website’s server automatically collects this information and tracks it on a page by page and on a statistical basis.

Use of Non-Personal Information

The Website uses non-personal information such as the region or country of the world from which your IP request emerged to track browser type, operating system, and page visits for statistical analysis of site usage and navigation trends.
