Web Site Use
Information
Similar to
other 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.

Broadly speaking, we use personal

business activities, providing customer service and making
available other products and services to our customers and

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.
How Do We Use
Information We Collect from Cookies?
Cookies, in
conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to
calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our Web
site and which parts of the site are most popular. This
helps us gather feedback in order to constantly improve our
Web site and better serve our customers. Cookies do not
allow us to gather any personal information about you and we
do not generally store any personal information that you
provided to us in your cookies.
Sharing
Information with Third Parties
We do not
share your information with unaffiliated third parties. We
may, however, share your information with our own personnel
and our service providers to the extent necessary to fulfill
your requests. We reserve the right to disclose your
information under limited circumstances, such as to
cooperate with law enforcement or judicial authorities as
required by law or legal process, to protect our own legal
rights, or to protect the public good.
Whenever you are online, you run the risk that the
information you give out will fall into the wrong hands.
Although we implement and maintain reasonable security
procedures and practices to safeguard your privacy, we
cannot guarantee the security of any information you provide
to us. We accept no responsibility or liability for the
activities of third parties.
Notice of New
Services and Changes
We may, from
time to time, change our Privacy Policy. We will notify you
of any changes by posting our updated Privacy Policy on our
Website and inserting a new Effective Date.
