Our Privacy Policy
We are committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have
adopted this Privacy Policy. It is intended to describe how we use
and process your personal information. Please note that by visiting
and using our website, you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Policy.
What information are we gathering about its visitors and how is it
being used?
Every computer connected to the Internet is provided with a domain
name (e.g. earthlink.net) and an IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.100).
When a visitor requests a page from within this website, our web
servers automatically identify and log the HTTP request that is made
to them, as follows:
The IP address of the site that may have referred you.
Your IP address.
The web page from which you linked to us.
The product identifier for version and make of browser (e.g.
Internet Explorer 7.0).
The operating system that you are running (e.g. Mac OS, Windows,
Linux).
Search words or terms that are passed from a search engine (e.g.
Google, Yahoo, or Lycos).
There is nothing unusual, in our view, about the information just
described, and the practice of collecting this data has been
generally standardized by many web servers today.
The purpose of this information is actually two-fold. One, we have
found it advantageous to examine visitor traffic in its aggregate so
that we can ensure maximum compatibility for the various browsers
and operating systems that visit our site. By analyzing these and
other visitation patterns, referring URLs and search engine terms,
we can strategically enhance our exposure on the Internet.
What about cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are transferred to your computer's
hard drive through your web browser from our web server. We use
cookies in some situations as a means of providing personalization
features to our visitors. For example, we use cookies to remember
personal settings (such as a login or password) that you may have
chosen at our website.
You can choose whether or not to accept cookies by changing the
settings of your browser. Typically, by accessing the browsers help
feature you can obtain information on how to prevent your browser
from accepting all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being
set. If you choose no to accept these cookies, your experience at
our website and other websites may be diminished and some features
may not work as intended.
What other information do we request?
We may also request your email address or mailing address for the
purposes of conducting a survey, adding you to our mailing list, or
by your request to have someone contact you for additional
information. Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will
clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information
is requested. We will not sell, rent, or otherwise give your email
address to a third party without your consent.
Will we disclose the information collected to third parties?
We will disclose your personal information or any of its log file
information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that
such actions are necessary to:
Confirm the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process
served on us.
Protect and defend the rights or property of ours, or our
visitors.
Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal notice,
or the rights of third parties. Cooperate with the
investigations of purported unlawful activities.
We use reasonable precautions to keep the information disclosed to
us secure. We reserve the right to transfer information in
connection with the sale of all or part of our capital stock or
assets to any third party. Furthermore, we are not responsible for
any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties that
receive the information.
We also provide "links" to a wide variety of other websites on the
Internet. We are not responsible for their privacy policies or how
those websites manage information about their users. We strongly
urge you to check with them to determine their privacy policy.
Any changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this page.
