Our privacy policy applies to information collected online from users of this website. In this policy, you can learn what kind of information we collect, when and how we might use that information, how we protect the information, and the choices you have with respect to your personal information, etc. This privacy notice applies solely to information collected by this website, except where stated otherwise.

What Personal Information Is Collected through This Website and How Is It Used?

We collect information about our users in 2 ways:

• directly from the user;
• from our Web server logs.

We use the information primarily to provide you with a personalized experience that delivers the information, resources, and services that are most relevant and helpful to you. We do not share any of the information you provide with others, unless we specifically mention so in this Privacy Policy, or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

User-Supplied Information

When you fill out the contact form on this website, we will ask you to provide some personal information (such as e-mail address, name, phone number, zip code and state). Further, if chat is available through this site, you may be asked to provide information if you participate in an online chat.

DO NOT SUBMIT ANY CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY OR SENSITIVE PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (e.g. Social Security Number; date of birth; drivers license number; or credit card, bank account or other financial information) (collectively, "Sensitive Information"). If you submit any Sensitive Information, you do so at your own risk and we will not be liable to you or responsible for consequences of your submission. Information that you provide to us through the contact form or an online chat will be used so that we may respond to your inquiry. We may also use information you provide to us to communicate with you in the future. If you do not wish to receive such communications, you may opt out (unsubscribe).

When you visit our website, we may track information about your visit and store that information in web server logs, which are records of the activities on our sites. The servers automatically capture and save the information electronically. Examples of the information we may collect include:

How Is Personal Information Protected?

We take certain appropriate security measures to help protect your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will always be unable to defeat our security measures.

The computers/servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
