What personal identifying

In order to provide the Services, SnyderWebs

information from its subscribers and

information (including, but not limited to,
age, household size, income level, education
level and gender), financial information
(including, but not limited to, credit card

to you) when you register for and use the

Non-personal and Aggregated information.
This refers to information that is not
personally identifiable. We automatically
gather certain information about you based
upon your activity on the Site or the way
you use the Service. We also collect machine
data such as processor type, processor
speed, operating system type, browser type,
audio devices, modem devices, video cards
and any software on your computer that may
interact or interfere with our Software or

web site's Uniform Resource Locator ("URL")
that you just came from, which URL you next
go to, what browser you are using, and your
Internet Protocol ("IP") address. This
information is compiled and analyzed on an
aggregated basis. For instance, we may know
that ten thousand people visit this Privacy
Statement today, but we do not know their
names or addresses so they are anonymous to
us. SnyderWebs Communication, LLC. also uses
this information to do internal research on
our visitors' demographics, interests and
