Example of Information Collected for Statistical Purposes
Below is an example of the information collected based on a standard request for a World Wide Web document:
2015-06-08 10:32:39 134.146.8.33 - W3SVC5
GET /www.nrt.org - 200 22927 5204 80 HTTP/1.0
Mozilla/3.0+(Win95;+I)

The date and time of the request.
54.208.107.139 (or yyy.zzz.com)
The IP address (or host name) associated with the requestor (you as the visitor). Depending on the requestor's method of network connection, the IP address (or host name) may or may not identify a specific computer. Connections via many Internet Service Providers assign different IP addresses for each session, so the host name identifies only the ISP. The IP address (or host name) will identify a specific computer if that computer has a fixed IP address.
