Is an IP address part of private and sensitive information?
This question has been debated on many levels of authority for some time. Within the European Union for example, IP address is advocated to be part of PII (Personal Identifiable information), however within the North America this sort of information is not perceived as such. Nevertheless, IP address allows to identify the PC and not necessarily an individual user.
