Deep packet Inspection (DPI) examine the types of traffic going across a network, but not the content or your search activities. During peak periods, we use DPI to identify peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing traffic, which is usually less time-sensitive than other applications, such as Web browsing or video streaming. When Internet traffic becomes congested, we may reduce the speed on your P2P activity to give priority to more urgent activities.
This is also known as “traffic shaping.”
When Bell uses DPI, we collect your IP address for a limited amount of time. Once the traffic has been sorted by type for traffic management purposes, it is not retained as part of the usage pattern of any IP address.
