Cookies are small data files that are sent to your browser and stored on your computer's hard-drive when you visit certain websites, thereby "tracking" use of the website. This technology does not collect personal information; the information collected is in an aggregate non-identifiable form. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies.

The Site uses Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the Internet. Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, it is possible that your IP Address that we collect, or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be identifiable. This is because with some broadband connections your IP Address does not change and could be associated with your personal computer. We use your IP Address to report aggregate information on use and to help improve the website.
