ISP Site Privacy Policy
Cookies
The ISP site uses a "session" feature which may request, but does not require, that a cookie be placed on your computer. A "cookie" is a little bit of information that we choose, via our behind the screen program code, to keep about your access to the ISP site. It does not identify you at all but rather keeps track of, for instance, whether you have chosen to Bolden Links or not so that each page you request during that "session" consistely has the feature on or off as you have chosen. A "session" may, or may not, expire in various ways. We have intentionally not, except for internal ISP login users, set any explicit expiration timeframe. However, different browsers may treat sessions differently, some defaulting to an hour when our server quits expecting the session to continue, and some forcing the session back into action whenever you access the site until you actually close your browser.
