MITRE additionally records each access of an individual Engage entry or candidate page to gauge User interest. Web log information may be provided to limited research groups within MITRE to support research related to the World Wide Web. This information does not identify you personally. MITRE may store such information, or it may be included in databases owned and maintained by our service providers.
