Use of Cookies And Pixels

 

Similar to other commercial websites, our website utilizes standard technology called “cookies” and server logs to collect information about how it is used. Information gathered through cookies and server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our site, the websites visited just before and after our own, and your IP address.

 

A cookie is a minimal text document, often including an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

 

The Company reserves the right to use technological equivalents of cookies, including social media pixels. These pixels allow social media sites to track visitors to outside websites to tailor advertising messages users see while visiting that social media website. The Company reserves the right to use these pixels in compliance with the policies of the various social media sites.​

How Do We Protect Your Information and Secure Information Transmissions?

 

We employ commercially reasonable methods to ensure the security of the information you provide and the information we collect automatically. This includes using standard security protocols and working only with reputable third-party vendors.

Email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason, we request that you do not send private information to us by email. Doing so is allowed, but it is at your own risk. Some of the information you enter on our website may be transmitted securely via a secure medium known as Secure Sockets Layer or SSL. Credit Card information and other sensitive information is never transmitted via email.

 

The Company may use software programs to create summary statistics, which are used to assess the number of visitors to the different sections of our site, what information is of most and least interest, determine technical design specifications, and identify system performance or problem areas.

 

For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, the Company uses software programs to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information or otherwise cause damage.
