This program tracks the number of times the site is hit, how many visitors come to the site, and which parts of the site they frequent. Our website logs are not personally identifiable, and we make no attempt to link them with the individuals that actually browse the site, other than in connection with the testing and improvement of our services.

This ID enables the website to readily recognize each visitor on a subsequent visit to the site. For example, a cookie may indicate the preferences selected by a visitor on a prior visit and facilitate more efficient browsing on subsequent visits. Scribe relies on cookies in this fashion.
