We collect information by which you may be personally identified, such as your name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number or other identifier by which you may be contacted online or offline (“Personal Information”), directly from you when you provide it to us. This includes information provided when you Contact Us or Report a Problem, including information you provide by filling in forms and all records and copies of your correspondences.

We collect information about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns automatically as you navigate through the Site through the use of automatic data collection technologies. Information collected automatically may include the following types of information: (i) details of your visits to the Site, including traffic data, location data, logs and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Site; and (ii) information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system and browser type (collectively, “Visit Information”). We may maintain or associate Visit Information with Personal Information we collect from other sources or that you provide to us. Visit Information will be used to administer, design and construct the Site, to track your movements on the Site and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include a small data file placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit the Site (“Cookies”). A Cookie file contains information that can identify you each time you visit the Site. The data is encrypted for added security. The Site may use Cookies as a way to measure activity and traffic patterns on the Site in order to improve your experience. Your browser can be set to warn you before accepting Cookies and you can choose to refuse Cookies by turning them off in your browser. You do not need to have Cookies turned on to visit the Site, but you may need them to use certain customizable features of the Site.

Online Tracking and How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals

We may also use automatic data collection technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). While we take all reasonable steps to protect your privacy, we cannot promise that the current limitations of our online applications programming will address every browser setting or honor every personal browser preference. In particular, we have not implemented the necessary program changes to honor “Do Not Track” or “DNT” browser signals. As our online applications programming is refined, we will take all reasonable steps to honor such requests in the future. Please return to this Privacy Policy for further updates on this topic.
