When you visit our Site, our server logs general data, such as your IP address and ISP's domain name (e.g., aol.com, site.com, home.com), the name of the web page from which you entered our Site, which pages you visit on our Site, and how much time you spend on each page. We use this information to continually monitor and improve our Site and for internal analysis (for such things as online storage management and provisioning for future expansion). None of this information is collected or stored on a personal, customer or visitor-specific level (including, but not limited to IP addresses).

Personal Information Submitted by You

As a visitor to our Site, you may choose to use the Site to send Twisted Melon personal information (e.g., your name, mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address).
