What Information Is Used
If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the site, read pages or download information, PFML will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. Only the following information about your visit is collected and stored:
-
- The Internet domain (e.g., .com, .net, etc.) and IP address (a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web) from which you access our website.
-
- The type of browser and operating system used to access our site.
-
- The date and time you access our site.
-
- The pages you visit.
-
- If you linked to our website from another website, the address of that website.
We use the information we collect to count the number and type of visitors to the different pages on our site, and to help us make our site more useful to visitors like you.
How Your Information Is Used
You may choose to provide PFML with personal information such as your name, mailing address, phone number and/or e-mail address. PFML uses that information to provide a service or materials to you or to respond to your requests. Personal information you have provided is held in strict confidence and is limited to representatives of PFML and outside processing companies (such as printers and mail services) solely to service your requests. PFML does not share your personal information with any outside organizations for their own marketing purposes.
How We Respond to “Do not Track Signals”
PFML does not track visitors over time and across third party websites and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your internet browser allows you to set the DNT signal so that third parties know you do not want to be tracked.
Third parties cannot collect any personally identifiable information from PFML’s website unless you provide it to them directly.
