REC Networks uses IP tracking as well as general logging to assure the integrity of our network and to identify issues with our sites and applications. This IP tracking normally does not carry any specific identifying information on an individual. IP addresses can be cross-referenced with ARIN to determine the owner of a specific IP address. While normally this is an ISP or a company, individuals who have IP addresses registered with ARIN would be able to be identified by IP address. An extremely large number of internet users do not fall under this category.

With the exception of IP addresses (see above), no user identifiable information is collected in this transaction.
