Other Data/Information We Collect:

When you use our website, we may automatically collect other information from you, such as website IP address, viewed web pages, browser type, operating system, service providers, search information, device type, page views, usage, and service logins, and similar data.

We may also receive or collect information indirectly associated with the provision of services, receive non-personal identification information from third parties, and aggregate general information before it is anonymized for privacy protection.

In certain circumstances, where automatic information collection does not allow the possibility of identifying individuals, we may still be able to collect or receive information that enables personal identification and such information may be combined with information that does not enable personal identification. Despite our reasonable efforts to minimize such incidental data collection, the possibility remains.
