Privacy Policy
Last Updated August 2006
We recognize that privacy is an important issue, so we design and
operate our services with the protection of your privacy in mind.
This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we
gather when you use our website, as well as some of the steps we
take to safeguard it.
The following principles apply to the personally identifying
information we ask for and that you provide. "Personally
identifying information" is information that individually
identifies you, such as your name, physical address or email
address.
Data collection
Some of our services and/or information requests may require you to
register for an account and/or provide personal information. We will
use that information to provide the service or fulfill the
information you requested.
Cookies
Upon your first visit to our site, a cookie may be sent to your
computer that uniquely identifies your browser. A "cookie"
is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to
your computer when you visit a website. We sometimes use cookies to
improve the quality of our service and to better understand how
people interact with us. We do this by storing user preferences in
cookies and by tracking user trends and patterns of how people
search. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You
can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a
cookie is being sent. However, some of our features or services may
not function properly without cookies.
Information sharing
We do not rent or sell your personally identifying information to
other companies or individuals, unless we have your consent. We may
share such information in any of the following limited
circumstances:
-We have your consent.
-We provide such information to trusted businesses or persons for
the sole purpose of processing personally identifying information on
our behalf. When this is done, it is subject to agreements that
oblige those parties to process such information only on our
instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and
appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
-We conclude that we are required by law or have a good faith belief
that access, preservation or disclosure of such information is
reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or CE32safety
of our company, its users or the public.
If you have an account, we may share the information submitted under
your account among all of our services in order to provide you with
a seamless experience and to improve the quality of our services. We
will not disclose your account information to other people or
non-affiliated companies, except in the limited circumstances
described in this Policy or with your consent.
We may store and process personal information collected on our site
in the United States or any other country in which we or our agents
maintain facilities. By using our services, you consent to the
transfer of your information among these facilities, including those
located outside your country.
In the event of a transfer of ownership of our company, such as
acquisition by or merger with another company, we will provide
notice before any personally identifying information is transferred
and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We may share aggregated information with others.
Information security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against
unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or
destruction of data.
We restrict access to your personally identifying information to
employees who need to know that information in order to operate,
develop or improve our services.
Updating your information
We provide mechanisms for updating and correcting your personally
identifying information for many of our services. If you have any
problems updating your information, please contact us at via the

Our site includes links to other websites that might be useful to
our visitors. These websites are developed by people over whom we
exercise no control. These other sites may place their own cookies
on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information.
Changes to this Policy
Please note this Privacy Policy will change from time to time. We
expect most such changes to be minor, but there may be changes that
are more significant. Regardless, we will post those changes on this
page and, if the changes are significant, we will also provide a
more prominent notice. Each version will be noted at the top of the
page.
