Like most website operators, Biocentric collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Biocentric's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Biocentric's visitors use its website. From time to time, Biocentric may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Biocentric also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://www.invocrc.com blog posts. Biocentric only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
- Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Biocentric's websites choose to interact with Biocentric Medical Research and Healthcare Facility in ways that require Biocentric to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Biocentric gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at https://www.invocrc.com to provide a username and email address.
