Collection, Use and Disclosure of Non- Personal Information
In some cases, a WVLA and Knight Broadcasting of Baton Rouge, Inc., site may collect information about you that is not personally identifiable, as described below. Internet Protocol Addresses
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number automatically assigned to your computer
whenever you access the Internet. This number does not identify your name, e-mail
address or other personal information. If you request pages from any WVLA and Knight Broadcasting of Baton Rouge, Inc., web site, that site's server will enter your IP address into a log. To maintain user anonymity, WVLA and Knight Broadcasting of Baton Rouge, Inc., does not associate IP addresses with records containing personal information. We also do not permit IP addresses to be associated and viewed with posts to chat rooms and bulletin boards. We store IP
addresses for a period of time to help us to identify anyone who refuses to comply with
our in- house rules or terms of service, and to identify visitors who threaten our service,
site, customers or others. We also will use this information to measure site traffic for
purposes of system administration and for our sponsors. This aggregate data also helps
us to understand how people are using the Web site and helps us improve your online
experience.
Cookies

repeat visitors, facilitate ongoing access to some sites, and allow sites to understand how
and when pages are visited and by how many people. We use cookies primarily to make
improvements and updates based on which areas are popular and which are not. We also
use cookies to ensure the accuracy of our polling data. Except for personal information
voluntarily provided by you (i.e., during any registration process), we do not use
information transferred through cookies for promotional or marketing purposes, and that
information is not shared with third parties.
Our advertisers may occasionally place cookies on your computer, which is standard in the
Internet industry. Please note that WVLA and Knight Broadcasting of Baton Rouge, Inc., does not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to this privacy policy.

explain how we collect, use, and disclose children's personal information, and will include
an opportunity for parents to prevent use of their children's information, as well as to
prevent their children from participating in features which involve the collection of
personal information. Should a child whom we know to be under 13 send personal
information to a WVLA and Knight Broadcasting of Baton Rouge, Inc., site without first obtaining parental consent, the site will immediately delete that information from its database.
We will not use, distribute or disclose any child's personal information to third parties

our use or maintenance of personal information collected from his or her child, we will
