Automatic Logging of Session
Data
We automatically log generic
information about your
computer's connection to the
Internet, which we call
"session data", that is
anonymous and not linked to
any personal information.
Session data consists of
things such as IP address,
operating system and type of
browser software being used
and the activities conducted
by the user while on
Parkcentral.biz site. An IP
address is a number that
lets computers attached to
the internet, such as our
web servers, know where to
send data back to the user,
such as the pages of the
site the user wishes to
view. We collect session
data because it helps us
analyze such things as what
items visitors are likely to
click on most, the way
visitors are clicking
through the site, how many
visitors are surfing to
various pages on the site,
how long visitors to the
site are staying and how
often they are visiting. It
also helps us diagnose
problems with our servers
and lets us better
administer our systems.
Although such information
does not identify any
visitor personally, it is
possible to determine from
an IP address a visitor's
Internet Service Provider
(ISP), and the approximate
geographic location of his
or her point of
connectivity.
