We may collect this information at various places and forms on the Web Site, including registration forms for newsletters and other communications (e.g., whether by e-mail, mobile device, etc.); when you communicate or otherwise interact with us in any way; when you submit information to us (whether or not the information is intended to be posted on the Web Site). It is your right to choose not to provide certain information (for example your name, email address or IP address) but then you may not be able to take advantage of some of the Web Site’s features such as a subscription to the newsletter or contacting us.

We also may receive information about you from other sources. For example, we may obtain geographic or demographic information, billing address, email address, information regarding your possible interests, your browser, services provider, internet protocol (IP) address, persistent IDs, device or technology used to access the Web Site from third parties or we may receive information from a marketing partner in connection with a co-branded web site or promotion.

Cookies:
What are cookies? The Web Site uses standard technology called “cookies” which are small data files or strings of text that are transferred to your computer (or other Internet-accessing device) when you visit the Web Site and allow your browser to accept cookies. Cookies automatically identify your web browser to the Web Site whenever you visit the Web Site and may make navigating and using the Web Site easier for you. Additionally, accepting cookies may allow you to, among other things, personalize your experience on the Web Site.
Currently, we use Google Analytics for aggregated, anonymized website traffic analysis. In order to track your session usage, Google drops a cookie (_ga) with a randomly-generated ClientID in your browser. This ID is anonymized and contains no identifiable information like email, phone number, name, etc. However, Google Analytics does install persistent cookies which provides us with a Persistent ID which is considered PII under the California Consumer Privacy Act. We also send Google your IP Address.
There are a variety of types of cookies and Company may from time to time use any of them. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser. Persistent cookies may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Web Site. Persistent cookies can be removed through the settings in your web browser. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser. A secure cookie is used when you are accessing the site using a secure https connection, which can be determined by the beginning of your web address. A third-party cookie is one that you can reset your web browser to refuse all such cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies, but you can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being sent or updated, or to block cookies altogether.

Children’s Privacy:
The Web Site is a general audience web site. Protecting the privacy of children is especially important. We recognize the importance of safeguarding the privacy of children and encourage parents to check and monitor their children’s use of online activities regularly. The Web Site supports and complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and other laws. The Web Site is not aimed at nor intended for children under the age of 13 and we will delete any information later determined to be from a user younger than thirteen (13). If you are under the age of 13, please do not use the Web Site. Our Web Site does not accept registration from children under the age of 13. No personally identifiable information (as defined in the COPPA, 15 U.S.C.

California Privacy Rights:
A California resident who has provided personal information to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family or household purposes (“California Customer”) is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. In general, if the business has made such a disclosure of personal information, upon receipt of a request by a California Customer, the business is required to provide a list of all third parties to whom personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.
If you would like to access what browsing information we have – or ask us to delete any Google Analytics data – reach out to us at
[email protected]. You can also do this yourself by deleting your _ga cookies and/or install the
Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.
Under the law, a business is not required to provide the above-described information if the business adopts and discloses to the public (in its privacy policy) a policy of not disclosing customer’s personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, as long as the business maintains and discloses this policy. Rather, the business may comply with the law by notifying the customer of his or her right to prevent disclosure of personal information and providing a cost free means to exercise that right.
As stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not share or sell information with or to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure. To prevent disclosure of your personal information for use in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt in to such use if asked when you provide personally identifiable information on the Web Site. Please note that whenever you opt in to receive future communications from a third party, your information will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy. If you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly, as we have no control over how third parties use information. You should always review the privacy policy of any party that collects your information to determine how that entity will handle your information.
California Customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by e-mailing
[email protected]. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail address.
