Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Pampered Passionscollects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Pampered Passion’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Pampered Passion’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Pampered Passions may release non-personally identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Pampered Passions also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users and for users leaving comments on PamperedPassions.com blogs/sites. Pampered Passions only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.
