Information Gathered by our Web Server
Our web server recognizes and records certain non-personal information about visitors, such as browser (e.g., Internet Explorer), Internet service provider (e.g., Yahoo!), and type of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista).

We do not access any personally identifiable facts in the process.

By participating in the contests, entrants grant the CMC the right to use and publish their names, state of residence, and other information, based on Contest Rules & Regulations for specific contests. Any individuals chosen as winners will be notified directly by our office or our designated agents and will be given the opportunity to refuse any prizes, thereby avoiding publication of their name on this site or in written materials (e.g., press releases).
