| What is an IP
Address?
When your web
browser or email application requests a web page or email from
another computer on the Internet, it automatically gives that
computer the address where it should send the information. This is
called your computer's "IP address." (IP stands for
"Internet Protocol.") For most users accessing the
Internet from a dial-up Internet service provider (ISP), the IP
address will be different every time you log on.
Information Collection and Use Practices
- LaMarSOFT receives IP addresses from all users
because this information is automatically reported by your
browser each time you view a web page.
- Your IP address is also stored in our user
registration databases when you register with LaMarSOFT.
- IP addresses may be used for various purposes,
including to:
- Diagnose service or technology problems
reported by our users or engineers that are associated with
the IP addresses controlled by a specific web company or
ISP.
- Send the most appropriate advertising based
on geographic area or information derived from your IP
address. Many IP addresses are commonly associated with
Internet service providers, universities, or major
corporations in specific regions or localities. Aggregate
information derived from IP addresses may also be reported
to advertisers.
- Estimate the total number of users visiting
LaMarSOFT from specific countries or regions of the world.
Other
- When a LaMarSOFT web page is requested and
viewed, that request is logged on our servers with information
including the IP address of the computer that requested the
page.
