What Information We Collect:

When you use the Wyzo.com web site, we require limited personal information from you in specific areas of the site. In these cases, you will be prompted for the information. For example, our discussion forums require you to register with an email address. When you visit the Wyzo.com web site, we also install a non-personally-identifiable cookie on your computer to help customize your experience on the web site.

We also use cookies to track the interest of our users so that we can subsequently enhance their experience on our website.

Like other browsers, Wyzo collects limited, non-personally identifying information that your browser makes available whenever you visit a web site (such as your Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your query, and build ID). The Wyzo browser also includes an update feature that checks our servers on a daily basis to ensure that you are running the latest version of our browser. This helps us ensure that you are running the most stable, secure and feature-rich version of the Wyzo browser. No personally-identifiable information is transmitted to our servers during this process. The auto-update feature can be disabled in our preferences menu.

You may enable various online services to be directly integrated into your Wyzo experience. By directly integrating these services into the browser, we make your online experiences richer, and more personalized.

Some of the url's you visit, which are transmitted to Alexa, will contain information that is personally identifiable.

Alexa aggregates and analyzes the information it collects to improve its service and to prepare reports about aggregate web usage. , which is incorporated into and made a part of this agreement, to understand how Alexa uses the information collected through SearchStatus.
