This is non personal identifying information of the sort that Web browsers, depending on their settings, may make available.

Online PostingsCertain personally identifying information collected from users is disclosed as a matter of course as a result of those users' use of the Website. We provide areas on our Website, such as forums, where members can post questions, comments and other information relating to your activities on the Website, and the comments and articles on the Absolute Write WordPress blog. Such postings are governed by our Terms of Service. In addition, such public postings may appear on other websites when searches are executed on the subject of your posting. Also, whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information on publicly-viewable web pages, that information will be publicly available and can be collected and used by others. For example, if you post your email address, you may receive unsolicited messages. We cannot control who reads your posting or what other users may do with the information you voluntarily post, especially on public areas of the Website and Forums. We encourage you to exercise discretion and caution with respect to your personal information.
