When you visit Nicheton’s website, we collect this information to understand the way you navigate our content, so that we can, among other things, improve and enhance the Website and tailor it to our users' needs and preferences. From time to time, Nicheton may release this information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in usage of the Website. Finally, we may also use a person's IP address to fight spam, malware and identity theft.
