Addresses - An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned
to your computer when you connect to the Internet. We collect IP addresses
for the purposes of system administration and to audit the use of our
site. Each time you log onto our site and each time you request one

By showing how and when our visitors use our site, cookies can help
us to improve our site on a continual basis. We will use cookies only
to view information on your hard drive that was put there by a cookie
