Information Security

When you are accessing third party tools that appear on this website (if any), the third party may also collect information about you, including information such as an Internet protocol (IP) address.

Most e-mail, including any e-mail functionality on our site, does not provide a completely secure and confidential means of communication. If you send an e-mail communication to us, it is possible that your e-mail may be accessed or viewed inappropriately by another Internet user while in transit to us. If you wish to keep your information completely private, you should not use e-mail.

Online Protections
If you created an account you have selected a password. Please keep this password confidential. You are responsible for any loss or misuse of your password and resulting actions taken with your account. We also use a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) designed to protect information in-transit over the Internet.

Additional Security
We also use appropriate physical, administrative, and technical controls to protect your information as well as our computers and technology that stores your information.

Payment and Financial Information
We protect payment card information we collect during transactions. We comply with industry standards that require safeguards for handling and securing customer information. These include using secure networks; encryption or other protection of cardholder data; physical and technical access controls; monitors and tests of security systems; and information security policies.
