This notice also describes how we secure your personal information and how you can contact us with any questions or concerns.

You may choose to provide us with personal information in the course of using certain features of this website. For example, if you decide to sign up for events or subscribe to email alerts or other publications, we ask for your name, postal address, phone number and email address so that we can fulfill your request. You also may choose to email us through the site, in which case we will receive your name, email address, and any other information you choose to include.

Information We Collect

When you access our website we may collect information about your visit to our pages and your computer or other devices you use to access our site, such as browser type, operating system, and IP address. We also know which pages you visit on our site or links you choose to follow from our site. We may receive the URLs of referral or exit pages depending on your browser settings. We do not track your Internet activity beyond our site or referral/exiting pages. We also may use cookies, which are files or data stored on the computer or other device you used to access the site. Cookies can store information that allow our site to recognize whether a certain computer or device has been used to visit it in the past and may enhance your online experience by saving your preferences or information you provide while visiting our site. We collect this information for analytics purposes so we can determine what features interest our users and potentially revise our site features or operation as a result. Our website does not currently recognize browser-based “do not track” settings. However, we do not track our user’s Internet activities beyond our own site, other than receiving the URL of any site our users click or manually enter when they leave our pages. We also do not permit third parties, such as ad networks or advertisers, to track users through our site.

Information We Share

If you provide information when using the site, or if we collect it as described above, we may share it with service providers who assist us in activities such as communications and file management. These providers are not authorized by us to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements.  In addition, we may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities or other government officials, (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss, or (iv) in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal or fraudulent activity. We further reserve the right to share any information we maintain in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets.

Protecting Personal Information

We maintain reasonable safeguards, such as administrative, technical and physical security measures, intended to protect against loss, misuse or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the personal information you provide or information we collect through this website.
