Privacy Policy

StatCounter.com respects the privacy and rights of its visitors. No effort is made to identify individuals without their knowledge.

  • When a visitor requests pages from the StatCounter.com site, our Web servers automatically log the browser's domain name, and IP address. This information is collected solely for statistical purposes and is not used to identify individuals.
  • Personally identifiable information such as visitor's name, telephone number, postal address and email address are technically impossible for StatCounter to collect and no attempt is made to do so. The information that is recorded consists of the date and time of visit, ip address, browser (e.g. Firefox 3.5), operating system version (e.g. Windows XP), screen resolution (e.g. 800x600), referring link, the current page url and the current page title.
  • To enable StatCounter.com to track whether a visitor has been to your website before (i.e. a first-time or returning visitor) we send a cookie to your visitors' computer. This information is collected solely to improve the service we offer to you and statistical purposes and is not used to identify individuals.
  • StatCounter.com maintains a strict "no-spam" policy. Your e-mail address will not be sold to a third party.

Misuse

The misuse of StatCounter.com to track unsolicited bulk mailings or fraudulant websites will not be tolerated (spam & phishing). Any account which is found to be engaged in such activities will be closed immediately. We despise spam. We believe people who send spam should spend time in prison for wasting the world's time. If you come across a spam or phishing site using StatCounter.com, please contact us with the URL of the offending page, or with a copy of the spam email message, and we will take appropriate action.
