Information Collected
We collect visitor information in a number of ways including nonpersonally identifiable information for unregistered users, and personally identifiable information that may be submitted voluntarily to us by you.
Information Collected From Unregistered Visitors
Visitors to MedicalCrossfire.com can browse certain parts of the Web site without registering. As an unregistered visitor, we are able to track information generated by your browser such as Internet protocol (IP) address or the most recently visited Web site; however, to access the most innovative features of MedicalCrossfire.com, you will need to become a registered user.
Use of IP Address
An IP address is a set of numbers that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you log on to your Internet service provider or through your organization’s local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Web servers automatically identify your computer by the IP address assigned to it during your session online. MedicalCrossfire.com may collect IP addresses for the purposes of systems administration and to audit the use of our site. We do not obtain any personally identifiable information of any unregistered visitor, which means each unregistered visitor’s session will be logged, but the unregistered visitor remains anonymous to us. We may, however, use IP addresses to identify unregistered visitors of our site when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with the Web site’s Terms of Use, or to protect our service, Web site, or other users.
Information Collected When You Register
When you become a registered user you will have access to more features of MedicalCrossfire.com. We will request personally identifiable information from you such as your name and e-mail address. All the fields on our registration screen will be clearly labeled, indicating if the information is required or voluntary.
