purposes. The City's web site uses software programs to create summary statistics,
which are used for such purposes as assessing what information is of most
and least interest, determining technical design specifications, and identifying
system performance or problem areas.
For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available
to all users, the City's web site employs software programs to monitor network
traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information,
or otherwise cause damage. Except for authorized law enforcement investigations
and the security purposes mentioned elsewhere in this notice, no other attempts
are made to identify individual users or their usage habits.
