An IP address is a number assigned to your computer for accessing the Internet. All computer identification on the Internet is conducted with IP addresses, which allow computers and servers to recognize and communicate with each other. PracticePRO Software Systems collects IP addresses in order to conduct system administration, report aggregate information to sponsors and advertisers, and to conduct site analysis. If a visitor requests pages from the PracticePRO Software Systems web site, the PracticePRO Software Systems servers enter the visitor’s IP address into a log. To maintain visitor anonymity, PracticePRO Software Systems does not associate IP addresses with records containing Personal Information. However, PracticePRO Software Systems will use IP addresses to identify any visitors who refuse to comply with PracticePRO Software Systems terms of service, and to identify visitors who threaten our service, site, or customers.
