THE INFORMATION WE MAY GATHER

Non-personally-identifiable information

As standard practice, Global Trips assigns a random number to each user in order to anonymously track content preferences and traffic patterns. This random number allows us to anonymously track actions of users. For instance, it allows us to track how often a given user visits the website each month without really knowing who the given user is. The data is analyzed for trends and statistics. It tells us which parts of our website users visit most often and the duration of visits etc. Information about searched items and terms are also gathered [anonymously]. The information is used to improve our content, plan website enhancements, and measure overall website effectiveness.

Personally identifiable information

Generally, we require personally-identifiable information only as a condition of utilizing portions of the website that require the information requested.
