PRIVACY POLICY
Our Privacy Policy
is designed to assist you in understanding how
we collect and use the personal information you

informed decisions when using our site and our
products and services.
What Information Do
We Collect?
When you visit our
Web site you may provide us with two types of
information: personal information you knowingly
choose to disclose that is collected on an
individual basis and Web site use information
collected on an aggregate basis as you and others

You will provide us
information about yourself, your firm or company,

how you see us servicing your needs and interests.
If you choose to
correspond with us through email, we may retain the
content of your email messages together with your

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.
How Do We Use the
Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking,
we use personal information for purposes of
administering and expanding our business activities,
providing customer service and making available
other products and services to our customers and
prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use
the information we collect to notify you about
important changes to our Web site, new services and
special offers we think you will find valuable. You
may notify us at any time if you do not wish to
receive these offers by contacting us.
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.
