In order to protect information from accidental or intentional destruction, when we remove any information from POPS services, we may choose not to either immediately remove its copies from the server or remove the information from our backup system. Each Internet-connected computer is identified by a numeric series called “Internet protocol” or IP address. When a user makes a request to the POPS’s server upon access to the site, the server will recognize the user by that IP address. This recognition does not affect any of the Customer’s personal information other than the fact that a computer is accessing POPS Application. POPS use this fact to generate statistics on global traffic and to check for any bandwidth abuse, so as to conform to legislative policies on cyber security.
