about the number of visits to the Site and/or aggregate data about
the pages visited.
How RCC Uses the Information
RCC uses the non-personally identifiable information ("Aggregate
Data") to improve the design and content of the Site and to enable
RCC to personalize your Internet experience. RCC may use the
