How do we protect your personal information?
We implement a variety of industry standard security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information, including encryption technologies.

At our actual facilities we implement security measures to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that we have collected from you at this website. Unfortunately, no security technology is completely secure, and you should remember that email is not a secure means of communication.

We may disclose your personally identifiable information to trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, processing transactions, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as these parties agree to keep this information confidential, consistent with this privacy policy. We also may disclose this information to third parties: (1) when we have reason to believe that such disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, customers or other users of this website, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities; or (2) to respond to judicial process and provide information to law enforcement agencies or in connection with an investigation on matters related to public safety, as permitted by law, or otherwise as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process.  Non-personal information collected at this website may be provided to third-parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
