Website Visitors
Like most website operators, RIAcast may collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. RIAcast’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how RIAcast’s visitors use its website. From time to time, RIAcast may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
RIAcast also may collect potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. RIAcast only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below. RIAcast may also utilize Google Analytics on its websites. RIAcast has no control over Google’s use of any information it collects.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to RIAcast’s websites choose to interact with RIAcast in ways that require RIAcast to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that RIAcast gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for email notifications to provide a first name, last name, and email address. RIAcast collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with RIAcast. RIAcast does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities. RIAcast may use third-parties to store and maintain names and email addresses provided to it. RIAcast does not and cannot ensure the security procedures employed by such third parties.
