This information may include the volume of traffic on the website, the web pages visited and their duration, the type of Internet browser used, the type of operating system used and the domain name of the website from which a link is established to our website, if any. This information is only used in the aggregate to help us better understand market trends and to enable us to improve the quality of our website.
