From time to time, Affordable Pet Services may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Affordable Pet Services also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blog.
