Your privacy is very important to us.
Accordingly, we have developed this Policy in order for you to
understand how we collect, use, communicate and make use of personal
information. The following outlines our Privacy Policy.
When
accessing our Website, we will learn certain information about you
during your visit.
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web
site utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation
below, "What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect information
about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and
Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages
viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just
before and just after our Web site, your IP address.
What
Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document,
which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a
Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to
store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for
cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your
browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your
browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already
sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
IP
Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every
time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that
is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP
addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part of
demographic and profile data known as "traffic data" so that data (such
as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.
E-mail
Information
If you choose to correspond with us through
email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with
your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections
for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of
information received online, mail and telephone.
How Do
We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly
speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our
business activities, providing customer service and making available
other items and services to our customers and prospective customers.
We
will not obtain personally-identifying information about you when you
visit our site, unless you choose to provide such information to us, nor
will such information be sold or otherwise transferred to unaffiliated
third parties without the approval of the user at the time of
collection.
We may disclose information when legally compelled to
do so, in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law
requires it or for the protection of our legal rights.
A
Special Note About Children
Children are not eligible to
use our web site and services and we ask that minors (under the age of
13) do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor,
you can use this site only in conjunction with permission and guidance
from your parents or guardians.
How Do We Protect Your
Information and Secure Information Transmissions?
Email
is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason,
we request that you do not send private information to us by email.
However, doing so is allowed, but at your own risk. Some of the
information you may enter on our Web site may be transmitted securely
via a secure medium known as Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL. Credit Card
information is never transmitted via email.
We may use software
programs to create summary statistics, which are used for such purposes
as assessing the number of visitors to the different sections of our
site, what information is of most and least interest, determining
technical design specifications, and identifying system performance or
problem areas.
For site security purposes and to ensure that this
service remains available to all users, we use software programs to
monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or
change information, or otherwise cause damage.
Policy
Changes
We reserve the right to amend this privacy
policy at any time with or without notice. However, please be assured
that if the Privacy Policy changes in the future, we will not use the
personal information you have submitted to us under this Privacy Policy
in a manner that is materially inconsistent with this Privacy Policy,
without your prior consent.
We are committed to conducting our
business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the
confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
