About IP Addresses
Audizine collects IP addresses when submitting posts to the bulletin
board and for the purposes of system administration. An IP address is a
number that's automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're
connected to a network or connected to the Internet. When guests
request pages from Audizine, our web servers log the guests' IP
addresses. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally
identifiable. This means that a user's session will be logged, but the
user remains anonymous to us unless issues of security arise in which
IP addresses may be turned over to local, state and national
authorities.
