The Reznor Web site may collect non-personally identifiable information during your visit, such as type of browser, operating system, domain name, or IP address. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Web.

We do not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information. This means that your session will be logged, but you remain anonymous to us. IP address information is used only to improve the service of the Reznor site, and is then discarded at the end of each session on our site.
Reznor also collects information through "referrers" and various environmental variables.

We collect all of this information to allow us to detect broad demographic trends, to provide information tailored to your interests and to enhance your experience on Reznor's Web site. Reznor may store "referrer" information for a limited period of time prior to deleting this information.
