Non‐Personally Identifiable Information

Refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. We gather certain information about you based upon where your usage of our Website in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis. For example, this information may include the Website’s Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your IP address. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web. An IP address is a computer identifier on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (“TCP/IP”) network, such as the World Wide Web. The Web uses the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of the destination. An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses to allow users to browse and communicate on the Internet.

We review the actions of the Rochester Rotary website visitors on a regular basis to determine customers’ preferences.
