ECG Gauging Services also collects potentially personally-identifying information like network domain names where users of the website have allowed that information to be publicly available and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for user submitted forms, for the prevention of spam and misuse. IP addresses are only visible and disclosed to the administrators of the website.

Gathering of Personally Identifying Information

In each case, ECG Gauging Services collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor's interaction with ECG Gauging Services.
