To view the Complete New Yorker you must install their software, and you must accept their license agreement. Scroll down past the usual legal terms to clause number 7, where you will see that you give them permission to record your complete viewing information, including which pages you view, for how long, at what time, from what IP address. Further, you give them permission to link all this data to your personal information including your name and address, and give/sell this to any third party.
Here's exactly what it says:
7. Collection of Viewing Information. You acknowledge that you are aware of and consent to the collection of your viewing information during your use of the Software and/or Content. Viewing information may include, without limitation, the time spent viewing specific pages, the order in which pages are viewed, the time of day pages are accessed, IP address and user ID. This viewing information may be linked to personally identifiable information, such as name or address and shared with third parties.
