Non-personal information

When visitors come to our Site, we collect and aggregate information indicating, among other things, which web pages were visited, the order in which they were visited, and which hyperlinks, if any, were "clicked" by the visitor. Collecting such information involves the logging of operating systems (e.g., Windows or Macintosh), type of browser software (e.g., Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer), Internet service providers (e.g., AOL or NET.COM) and IP addresses used by each visitor to the Site. Although such information is not personally identifiable, it can be used to determine the IP address of the visitor's Internet Service Provider and the geographic location of his/her point of connectivity to the Internet.

Cookies

Cookies are small bits of information that our site places on the hard drive of your computer to enable us to do a number of things to make your visit and future visits to the site more enjoyable. For example, cookies allow a visitor to quickly log on to a site he/she has used before by storing a password. Most major sites on the Internet use cookies. The cookie does not contain any personally identifiable information about a visitor, and NET Project does not use cookies in order to get such information. You should consult your browser's documentation or "help" feature for instructions on how to be notified and control whether cookies are transferred to you computer. NET Project uses the information obtained through the use of cookies in order to improve the Site. By obtaining this information, we are able to continually improve our Site and bring you the best online experience possible. By tracking how many people visit our Site and where visitors go on our Site, we are able to determine which part of the Site users like the best, which part needs some improvement, and what changes should be made.
