An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your

the computers that "serve up" Web pages, automatically
identify your computer by its IP address. When you request
a page from our Web site, our servers log your IP address.
An IP address does not contain personally identifiable
information. Except with respect to our e-commerce activities
(e.g., online purchases) and e-newsletter, we do not link
IP addresses with personally identifiable information.
We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with
our server and to administer our Web site. Your IP address
is used to help identify you and your shopping cart and
to gather broad demographic information. We may also collect
information about your browser software and/or machine
type (e.g., Windows, Mac, Unix, etc.).
Links:
We do create links to the Web sites of other parties.
The inherent nature of the Internet allows easy access
from one Web site to another. While we certainly try not
to link to any Web sites that contain unsuitable or inappropriate
material, we cannot control any of these links and are
not responsible for any content appearing on Web sites
linked to or from our Web site, or for any personal information
gathered at those independently-operated Web sites. Independently-operated
Web sites are not associated with or authorized by us
and may also have links leading to this Web site.
