Automatic Data Collection
When a visitor requests a page of information from a web site, information about the request is automatically stored in a log file. This information includes the address of the computer making the request (the Internet address, not the street address), the time and date of the request, the type of web browser being used, and sometimes, the page from which the visitor is coming. The information does not contain the visitor's name or e-mail address, since the visitor's browser does not provide this information to the web server. Univisions Crimson Group analyzes these log files to learn about how visitors are using the content on the site. This information is used to allocate resources effectively and improve the content of our site.

Voluntary Registration
Certain parts of the Univisions Crimson Group site require that visitors register by providing their names, e-mail addresses, and other personal information, which is recorded in databases on our servers. This information is kept strictly confidential; it is not shared with or sold to other companies. It may, however, be used internally. The data may be used to send e-mail announcements of events on the site to users who registered for similar events. The data may also be used for direct mailings to the Univisions Crimson Group customers. If you do not want to receive such mail, when you register for one of our sections, you may opt to not be included in mailings. If a particular registration form does not have this option, you can send us an e-mail. Please include your name and the section for which you were registering so that we can effectively remove you from the database.
