Personal Information Collected

TSI may collect personal information voluntarily provided by you, such as your first and last name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, username, or password, to facilitate your use of the Site, allow you to register for e-mail updates and other features, allow you to apply for new membership or renew your membership, and respond to your comments, questions, requests, or complaints. The information requested depends on the feature offered. Your participation in these features and your sharing of your personal information constitutes your agreement to such sharing. You do not need to be a TSI member to use some portions of this Site, but TSI members receive access to additional areas within the Site. While you are under no obligation to provide personal information, you may not be eligible to access certain areas of the Site or participate in certain features without providing such information.

Information Collected Automatically

If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. We automatically collect and store only the following information about your visit:

The Internet domain (for example, "xcompany.com" if you use a private Internet access account and IP address (an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web) from which you access our website;

• The type of browser and operating system used to access our site;
• The date and time you access our site;
• The pages you visit; and
• If you linked to the our site from another website, the address of that website.

We use this information to help us make our site more useful to visitors — to learn about the number of visitors to our site and the types of technology our visitors use. We do not track or record information about individuals and their visits.
