IP addresses are classified as personal data under GDPR in the EU, and the inclusion of 'other statistics' creates an open-ended category of automatically collected data that is not bounded by the provision's enumerated examples. The policy does not state a retention period for log data.
Interpretive note: The phrase 'other statistics' is undefined, leaving the full scope of log data collection indeterminate from the document text alone.
Under this clause, each visit to modal.com results in automatic collection of IP address, browser version, page visit history, timestamps, and additional unspecified statistics, without a stated retention period or user mechanism to access or delete this data.
