Glossary of Terms
Cookies
Cookies are pieces of information that a web site stores in your computer. Temporary cookies
only last as long as your browser is running. Persistent cookies are stored on your hard disk (they
take up very little space). Sites often use cookies to identify repeat visitors and offer them
personalized services.
IP Address
When you are connected to the Internet, your computer has a unique Internet ID called an IP address.
Most people that connect through a dial-up service, such as America Online, get a different IP address
each time they login. Others might have a permanently assigned IP address called a static IP address.
It is difficult or impossible for a web site to collect personal information about you (i.e., your name,
email address, etc.) from your IP address alone, though a static IP address makes this easier.
SSL Encryption
A method by which information transmitted across the Internet is scrambled to the point where it
is virtually indecipherable by anyone who should intercept the data before it reaches its destination.
Most reputable online stores make use of SSL encryption to request credit card information and other
sensitive data from their customers. Web pages where SSL encryption is activated are typically
identified with a lock or key symbol displayed somewhere in your browser. Refer to your browser’s
documentation for the specific symbol and location.
