You really are anonymous

We will protect your identity – you do not have to enter any personal information to access the information through ICON.

We do not collect your IP address and we do not know your name or where you are in NZ.

User analytics will be collected through the site to share with our funders, partners and members but these will not be linked back to your personal information.

Basically this means that we count you as a number.

This actually means, we will find out how many people are using the web tool and what information they are looking at BUT this will not link back to any of your personal information.

We may ask for feedback at different points, this is optional (but we would love if you are happy to help out) and will be used separately from  your browsing info.
