Privacy Notification
In compliance with Chapter 429 (1998) SB 1386 (Leslie), the Commission is making this
notification concerning personal information collected on the Commission's website.
The only personal information gathered is the user's unique Internet Protocol address,
the user's host name, the operating system of the computer, and the Internet browser along
with the pages visited by the user.
The collection of the IP address in the log of the host server is standard among
all web servers. The host name identifies the generic name of the computer and the network
to which it belongs. The proxy, or firewall, at the Internet Service Provider may mask the
IP address and the host name.
The information gathered is used to generate statistics about the Commission's website usage.
Reports show the countries of origin, the page popularity, types of browsers, operating
systems, and the number of users from particular networks (.com, .net, .gov, and .edu).
This information helps the Commission to make design changes to ensure site compatibility
with the majority of the users' computers.
All information gathered is subject to the limitations set forth in the Information Practices Act of 1977
(Title 1.8 [commencing with Section 1798] of Part 4 of Division 3 of the Civil Code) and is exempt
from requests made pursuant to the California Public Records Act (Chapter 3.5 [commencing with
Section 6250] of Division 7 of Title 1). The Commission does not distribute or sell electronically
collected personal information, nor does the Commission reuse the collected information.
