  • Tracking Technologies. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent.

How We Protect Your Information

We have implemented commercially reasonable measures designed to secure your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure.

Use of Information Outside Your Country of Residence

The Website is directed to users located in the United States. If you are located outside of the United States and choose to use the Website or provide your information to us, you should be aware that we may transfer your information to the United States and process it there. The privacy laws in the United States may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction.

WE DO NOT CURRENTLY RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK (“DNT”) SIGNALS.

 

Changes to Our Privacy Notice

We may update our privacy notice from time to time. If we make material changes to how we treat our users’ personal information, we will post the new privacy notice on this page.  Your continued use of the Website after the posting of the new privacy notice will mean you accept the changes.  In some cases we may attempt to contact you through an email or other address you have provided, so we can give you choices about our using your information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection.  If we make any material changes in our privacy practices that affect your personal information that is already in our possession, we will apply those changes to that older information only with your consent or as otherwise allowed by law.

The date the privacy notice was last revised is identified at the top of the page. You are responsible for ensuring we have an up-to-date active and deliverable email address for you and for periodically visiting this privacy notice to check for any changes.
