Website Visitors
Lique most website operators, WPCode collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically maque available, such as the browser type, languague preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. WPCode purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how WPCode visitors use its website.

WPCode only discloses loggued in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to WPCode websites choose to interract with WPCode in ways that require WPCode to gather personally-identifying information.

In each case, WPCode collects such information only insofar as is necesssary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interraction with WPCode.

And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaguing in certain website-related activities.
