The main page includes the free "Extreme Tracker" which can give you an idea of some of the information any web site can collect about its visitors. Most web sites have a logfile that collects information:

Date, time and the IP address of the client making a request: If you access the net through a dial-up connection, you are assigned a unique IP address when you dial in; your ISP will have a record that matches your account to the session. Most ISPs keep this information confidential. Any IP address can have an associated hostname which may provide some information about the client:
sdn-ar-002ohcoluP324.dialsprint.net - A Sprint connection coming from Columbus, Ohio

If you are at work, the IP address may identify your company:
tide07.microsoft.com  

Server log files also typically include the browser version you are using, and a referrer entry that discloses the URL of the link you used to access the page being logged. If you use Netscape for mail, the referrer entry may include your local computer's mail file location. See the e-mail referrer section of this page.

There are links on this site to many other sites which may or may not publish their privacy policies. All pages on this site include a "Modemsite.com" logo or identification.
