I use IP Addresses for purposes such as calculating usage levels of the Website, helping diagnose server problems, and providing my website content.

If you access email or social networking website through the Website, I may allow them to collect certain anonymous information about your visits to the Website so they may provide you with advertisements about the goods or services they offer that might be of interest to you.
