Identifiable Information.
Personally Identifiable Information: This information lets us know
the specifics of who you are. It may include but is not limited to

you order a product or service, participate in certain promotional

Personally Identifiable Information when you ask that we send products
or information directly to other people; in these cases, we will collect
the information you submit about the recipient. It will be clear when
you are on a part of our web site that requires personal information,
because we will ask you for it and you will have a choice about how
we use that information.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information: This is information that
does not by itself identify a specific individual. The non-personally
identifiable data we collect when you visit our web site may include
the Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") (1) of the web site
that you came from before visiting our web site, which pages you visit
on our web site, which web site you go to next, which browser you

Notes
1. A URL is the global
address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web. For
example, www.stroma.eu is the URL for Stroma (UK)'s UK home page.
2. An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a Transmission
Control Protocol/Internet Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such
as the World Wide Web. Networks use the TCP/IP protocol to route information
based on the IP address of the destination. In other words, an IP
address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer
whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and
identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses in order for
users to communicate on the Internet, browse and shop. |
