This information does not identify you personally. We automatically
collect and store aggregated tracking data when users interact

- The Internet domain (for example, "xcompany.com"
if you use a private Internet access account, or "yourschool.edu"
if you connect from a university's domain) and IP address

to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web) from
which you access our Web site;

We use the aggregated tracking data to help us make our site
more useful to visitors -- to learn about the number of visitors
to our site and the types of technology our visitors use. We
use this information to improve our sites. We also share this
anonymous traffic and demographic information, in aggregate
form, with other non-profit organizations that are interested
in our project.
