IP addresses
An IP address is a unique number assigned to your computer when it accesses the Internet or another computer network. Web servers and network devices automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We collect IP addresses for purposes of system administration and to track the use of this website. When visitors request pages from our website, our servers log the visitors’ IP addresses. We do not link these addresses to any person’s name or other identifying information, which means that a visitor’s session will be logged, but the visitor remains anonymous to us. However, we reserve the right to use IP addresses to identify a visitor when we are required to do so by law.
