We assume no liability for the interception, misuse or alteration of any information transmitted over the Internet.

WHO HAS ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Access to your personal information will be limited to those who need the information to carry out our business operations. We do not disclose your personal information without your consent unless a specific reference is made when you provide such personal information, or where disclosure of such personal information to third parties is directly related to our business activities or necessary to provide you with information, products or services. We may also disclose your personal information when required by law.
HOW DO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION
Wherever possible, personal information will be collected directly and with the consent of the individual about whom it pertains; however, we may sometimes collect personal information from third parties.
For each visitor to our website, our server may recognize the visitor’s domain name and email address (where applicable). We collect the domain names of visitors to our website, aggregate information on what web pages visitors access or visit, information voluntarily provided by visitors, such as personal information, survey information and/or site registrations.
We may also collect some basic information regarding the use of our website. This type of non-identifiable information may be collected automatically, i.e., without registration or without you having to complete online surveys, forms or questionnaires. This information may include the amount of traffic visiting the website, which web pages are visited and for how long, the type of Internet browser used, the type of operating system used and the domain name of the website from which a link is made to our website, if any. This information is used only in the aggregate to help us better understand trends evolving in the marketplace which will in turn allow us to improve the quality of our website.
