App, browser, and device information

We collect and receive information from and about the different devices you use and how you use them.

Devices include computers, phones, hardware, connected TVs, Portal devices, and other web-connected devices.

Device information we collect and receive includes:

IP address
Stands for "internet protocol address." It’s a unique number assigned to a device, like a phone or computer, that allows it to communicate over the internet. Numbers are assigned according to standard guidelines, or protocols.
Just like you need a mailing address to receive a letter from a friend, your device needs an IP address to receive information on the internet.
  • Some location-related information, even if Location Services is turned off in your device settings. This includes using IP addresses to estimate your general location.
  • Information from cookies and similar technologies.
  • Information about our Products’ performance on your device.
