Information Collected

While we do not directly collect personally identifiable information from visitors to the Kuru Disease website, we do gather certain non-personally identifiable information automatically as you navigate through the site. This information helps us understand how our visitors use the site and enables us to improve the user experience.

Types of Information Collected

IP Address: Your Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numerical label assigned to your device when it connects to the internet. We collect this to understand geographic location data (at a broad level, like country or city) for analytical purposes and to help diagnose server problems.
Browser Type: Information about the web browser you are using (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari) helps us ensure our site is compatible and performs well across different browsers.
Operating System: We collect information about your device's operating system (e.g., Windows, macOS, Android, iOS) to optimize the website's display and functionality for various platforms.
Pages Visited: We track which pages you visit on our Site, the order in which you visit them, and the time spent on each page. This data helps us identify popular content, areas for improvement, and overall user flow.

This information is collected in an aggregated and anonymized form, meaning it cannot be used to identify you personally.
