We are a United States company that utilizes service providers located in the United States and other countries. Therefore, when you use our Site, your information may be transferred to, stored and/or processed outside of the country in which you reside and may be maintained on servers and systems located within the United States or other countries. The data protection laws in the United States and those other countries might not be as strict as those in your country. By using our Site and/or submitting information to us, you specifically consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and those other countries and the facilities and servers utilized by us and those with whom we may share your information.
We believe in providing a safe and secure experience for all of our online visitors. To that end, we have implemented security measures to protect the information collected from you. We maintain physical, technical, and administrative safeguards designed to limit unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information, and to protect you against the criminal misuse of that information.

For example, in your transactions submitted by you through the Site, a solid key icon or a locked padlock icon at the lower portion of your web browser window confirms the website is secured through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Pages requesting personal information should always have one of these icons. You can also confirm your data is being encrypted by looking at the URL line of your browser (the place where you type website addresses). When accessing a secure server, the site address will change from "http" to "https".

While we use the foregoing security measures to protect your information, please note that no transmission of data over the Internet or any wireless network or stored and utilized for business purposes can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure that any information we receive, store or otherwise utilize is completely secure. You can reduce security risks by using common sense security practices such as choosing a strong password, using different passwords for different services, and using up to date antivirus software.
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time, in whole or in part, at our discretion and without prior notice.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.
