Collection,
Use and Disclosure of Non-Personal Information
In some cases, the Tech Works site may collect information about
you that is not personally identifiable, as described below.
Internet Protocol Addresses
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number automatically assigned
to your computer whenever you access the Internet. This number
does not identify your name, e-mail address or other personal
information. If you request pages from the Help My Teen Web site,
that site's server will enter your IP address into a log. To maintain
user anonymity, Help My Teen does not associate IP addresses with
records containing personal information. We also do not permit
IP addresses to be associated and viewed with posts to services
within Help My Teen site.
We store IP addresses for a period of time to help us to identify
anyone who refuses to comply with our in-house rules or terms
of service, and to identify visitors who threaten our service,
site, customers or others. We also will use this information to
measure site traffic for purposes of system administration and
for our sponsors. This aggregate data also helps us to understand
how people are using the Web site and helps us improve your online
experience.
