We use this information to get a better idea of how our users interact with our Sites and then tailor and improve our Sites accordingly. Usage Information generally can't be linked to you individually, but if we can link it to you then we treat it as Your Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

   We may also automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier for the computer, mobile device, technology or other device (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the Site.
