Online Privacy Statement
This online privacy
statement is intended to inform you of the ways in which this web site
collects information, the uses to which that information will be put,
and the ways in which we will protect any information you choose to provide
us.
There are three types of information that this site may collect during
your visit: web visit logs, cookies, and information
voluntarily provided by you.
Web Visit Logs
We store information from online
visitors to help manage this site and improve service. This information
includes the pages visited on the site, the date and time of the visit,
the internet address (URL or IP address) of the referring site, the domain
name and IP address from which the access occurred, the version of browser
used, the capabilities of the browser, and search terms used on our search
engines. This site makes no attempt to identify individual visitors from
this information: any personally identifiable information is not released
to external parties without your consent unless required by law.
Cookies
Cookies are pieces of information stored by your web browser on behalf
of a web site and returned to the web site on request. This site may use
cookies for two purposes: to carry data about your current session at
the site from one web page to the next, and to identify you to the site
between visits. If you prefer not to receive cookies, you may turn them
off in your browser, or may set your browser to ask you before accepting
a new cookie. Some pages may not function properly if the cookies are
turned off. Unless otherwise notified on this site, we will not store
data, other than for these two purposes, in cookies. Cookies remain on
your computer, and accordingly we neither store cookies on our computers
nor forward them to any external parties. Unless otherwise notified on
this site, we do not use cookies to track your movement among different
web sites and do not exchange cookies with other entities.
Information Voluntarily Provided by You
In the course of using this web site, you may choose to provide us with
information to help us serve your needs. For example, you may send us
electronic mail (through a mailer or a web form) to request information,
you may sign up for a mailing list, or you may send us your address so
we may send you materials. Any personally identifiable
information you send us will be used only for the purpose indicated. Requests
for information will be directed to the appropriate staff to respond to
the request, and may be recorded to help us update our site to better
respond to similar requests. We will not sell, exchange or otherwise distribute
your personally identifiable information without your consent, except
to the extent required by law. We do not retain the information longer
than necessary for normal operations. Each web page requesting information
discloses the purpose of that information. If you do not wish to have
the information used in that manner, you are not required to provide it.
Please contact the person listed on the specific page, or listed below,
with questions or concerns on the use of personally identifiable information.
Our site provides links to other World Wide Web sites.
We do not control these sites, and
are not responsible for their availability, content, or delivery of services.
In particular, external sites are not bound by this online
privacy policy; they may have their own policies or none at all. Often
you can tell you are leaving our site by noting the URL of
the destination site.
If you have questions about this site, its collection of information,
and its online privacy statement, please contact us.
