For visitors to our website, we gather only aggregate, non-personally identifying
data about your visit to our website. DonkBoy Internet's web servers log a number of basic
pieces of information, including the following:
- The URL (address) of the page(s) requested;
- The time and date of the request(s) and the duration of your visit;
- The "User Agent" (the make and model of the web browser being used,
including the name and version of the operating system upon which that web browser is
running);
- The "Referrer" (the address of the site whose link you followed to get to
our web site);
- The IP address and domain name of the computer to which we are sending pages for
display by your web browser.
Below is an example of the information collected based on a standard request for a
World Wide Web document:
xxx.yyy.com - - [28/Jan/1999:00:00:01 -0500]
"GET /sitename/news/nr012799.html HTTP/1.0" 200 16704
Mozilla 3.0/www.donkboy.com
xxx.yyy.com (or 123.123.23.12) -- this is the host name (or IP address)
associated with the requester (you as the visitor). In this case, (....com) the
requester is coming from a commercial address. Depending on the requestor's method of
network connection, the host name (or IP address) may or may not identify a specific
computer. Connections via many Internet Service Providers assign different IP addresses
for each session, so the host name identifies only the ISP. The host name (or IP address)
will identify a specific computer if that computer has a fixed IP address.
[28/Jan/1999:00:00:01 -0500] -- this is the date and time of the request
"GET /sitename/news/nr012799.html HTTP/1.0" -- this is the
location of the requested file
200 -- this is the status code - 200 is OK - the request was filled
16704 -- this is the size of the requested file in bytes
Mozilla 3.0 -- this identifies the type of browser software used to access
the page, which indicates what design parameters to use in constructing the pages
www.donkboy.com-- this indicates the last site the person visited, which indicates
how people find this site
Requests for other types of documents use similar information. No other
user-identifying information is collected and stored unless required by ongoing
investigations.
