Internet
Aspects:
Personal

Sites) or related to services made available
on the ENova Tech Companies Sites. Although
information collected, used or disclosed on

to such information), ENova Tech provides the
details below about Internet aspects of ENova
Tech services for the purposes of disclosure.
Internet
Protocol Address (IP Address)
When
the users web browser requests a web page
from another computer on the Internet, it automatically
gives that computer the address where it should
send the information. This address is called
the computers IP address.
For most users accessing the Internet from a
dial-up Internet service provider (ISP), the
IP address will be different every time the
user logs on.
ENova
Tech may use the users IP Address to:
a) Facilitate the diagnosis and remedy of a
technical problem reported by the users
or ENova Techs technical team.
b) Display (or allow the display by Third Party
advertising providers of) more appropriate and
relevant content and advertising, such as content
and advertising based on the users geographic
area.
c) Estimate user traffic from specific countries
or organizations. Many IP addresses are commonly
associated with Internet service providers,
universities, or major corporations in specific
regions or localities. Aggregate information
derived from IP addresses may also be reported
to advertisers.

understand when to update, change or offer new
services and provides ENova Tech with details
as to the performance of Third Party advertisements
and content. This information may be reported,
in aggregate form only, to ENova Tech s
current and prospective sponsors, advertisers
and business partners. No Personal Information
will be disclosed in such reports;
c) Display advertisements. ENova Tech and Third
Party advertising providers may use cookies
when serving advertisements on ENova Tech websites.
In some cases, advertisements from Third Party
advertisers are delivered to users (in conjunction
with ENova Tech services) by such Third Party
advertisers, or by separately contracted advertising
providers on their behalf, and not by ENova
Tech; as such, the Third-party advertisers
use of cookies is subject to their own privacy

and users should consult the privacy policies
of such Third Party advertisers.

ENova Tech do not require a user to use cookies,
certain ENova Tech services will not function
properly if a user sets his/her browser to not
accept cookies.

or the privacy practices employed by, other
companies or websites. This ENova Tech Privacy
Policy applies only to the ENova Tech services
related to this ENova Tech Privacy Policy.
