We will use our best commercial efforts to comply with this Privacy Policy.
We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time, in which case we will post our amended Privacy Policy on our websites.
2. Definition of Personal Information: “Personal information” means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as a name, address, telephone number and email address), or information about that individual that is directly linked to personally identifiable information. Personal information does not include “aggregate” information, which is data we collect about the use of our websites or about a group or category of services or users, from which individual identities or other personal information has been removed. This Privacy Policy in no way restricts or limits our collection and use of aggregate information.
3. Collection of Personal Information: We may collect information about you in various ways when you use our websites.

This information may include personal information.
3.2 Additional Information We May Collect: We may collect some information automatically when you use our website. For example, we may track information like your IP address, operating system, browser type, address of a referring website, and your activity on our website.
We may automatically collect information using cookies or web beacons.
“Cookies” are small data files stored on your hard drive at the request of a website. If you wish to block, erase, or be warned of cookies, please refer to your browser manufacturer to learn about these functions. If you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services on our website.
“Web beacons” are small, invisible graphic images that may be used on our website or in emails relating to our website to collect certain information and monitor user activity on our website.
The information we collect using these processes can help us improve our website and your experience. We treat this information as personal information if we combine it with, or link it to, any of the personally identifying information mentioned in the section above entitled “Personal Information”. Otherwise, it is used only in the aggregate.
3.3 Information Collected by Third Parties: We may use third parties to place ads on our website. These third parties may place cookies, web beacons or other devices on your computer to collect non-personal information, and information provided by these devices may be used, among other things, to analyze data, to determine the popularity of certain content, to deliver advertising targeted to your interests, and to better understand the usage and visitation of our website and the other sites tracked by these third parties. This Privacy Policy does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, cookies or web beacons in third party ads. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of advertisers to learn about their uses of these and other devices.
Our website may contain links to other websites not affiliated with us. Any personal information you provide on the linked pages is provided directly to that third party and is subject to that third party’s privacy policy. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of websites to which we link. Links from our website to third parties or to other sites are provided for your convenience. We encourage you to learn about their privacy and security practices and policies before providing them with personal information.

Personal information provided online may be linked together or merged with other personal information so that we may better understand your needs and inform you about our products or services and those of our partners. In addition, if we receive information from third parties with whom we have business relationships, we may combine this information with the other personal information we maintain about you.
5. Sharing Personal Information with Others: We will not share your personal information with third parties, except as described in this Privacy Policy or on our website. For example, we may share personal information as follows:
when we believe in good faith that we are lawfully authorized or required to do so or that doing so is reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with the law or with legal process or authorities;
to respond to any claims, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, our employees, copyright owners or the public, including without limitation to protect us or our users from fraudulent, abusive, inappropriate, or unlawful use of our website;

Nothing herein restricts the sharing of aggregate information of any kind, which may be shared with third parties without your consent.
6. Efforts to Protect Personal Information: We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information in an effort to prevent loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. You accept this inherent risk.

You may also opt out of marketing emails by updating your “user preferences” on the appropriate section of our website (if available).
