references to "we", "us", this "website" or this "site" shall be construed to
mean PsychMoo.

policy regarding information, including personal information, that we collect
through this website.

3.
Collection of Anonymous, Passive Information. We reserve the right to monitor
your use of this site. As you navigate through this site, certain anonymous
information may be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively
providing the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet
tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs,
clickstream). The following is a listing and a brief explanation of passive
information collection methodologies which we may use from time to time to
better understand how this site is being used.
3.1 A "cookie" is a text
file that this site sends to your browser in the form of a text file The
information generated by the cookie about your use of this site (including your
IP address) will be transmitted to and stored. Most browsers automatically
accept cookies, but they usually can be modified to decline cookies if you
prefer; however, certain features of this site might not work without cookies.
3.2 "Session" cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to
improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where
inappropriate (the site "remembers" previous entries of country of origin that
were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes), and
collect aggregate statistical information on the site. They are erased once you
exit your Web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.
3.3
"Persistent" cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on
the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie.
Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes,
such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided, helping to
determine what areas of the site you may find most valuable, and customizing the
site based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies placed by
this site in your computer do not hold personal information.
3.4 You can
set your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies, or to notify you
whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept
it. To learn more about cookies and how to specify your preferences, please
search for "cookie" in the "Help" portion of your browser.
3.5 An
Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number assigned to your computer by your
Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally
considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in many cases
an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet),
rather than static (unique to a particular user's computer). The IP address can
be used to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information,
determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a site,
and administer and improve the site.
3.6 "Internet tags" (also known as
Web Beacons, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs)
tell the website server information such as the IP address and browser type
related to the visitor's computer. Tags may be placed both on online
advertisements that bring people to the site and on different pages of the site.
Such tags indicate how many times a page is opened and which information is
consulted.
3.7 "Navigational data" (log files, server logs, and
clickstream data) are used for system management, to improve the content of the
site, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.
4. Use and Sharing of Anonymous, Passive Information. This site may make
full use of passively collected anonymous information, including without
limitation the right to use such information to provide better service to site

that are targeted to your interests ("3rd Party Behavioral Ads"). We reserve the
right to share anonymous, passive information collected on this site with third
