USE AND SHARING OF INFORMATION

EMAIL YOU SEND US
When you send us email, it is stored in our mail server and the email accounts we use for communication. We keep records of emails to aid in communication, legal purposes, tax purposes, etc. If you do not want us to store your email message or you do not want your email stored on our mail server, you should avoid contacting us, or request that we delete your message after reading it. We will normally happily comply to such a request, but if we feel there is an important reason to maintain a record of the message, we will not be obligated to remove it unless required to by law.
CHILDREN’S GUIDELINES
Children’s privacy is a major concern to us. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have personal information on a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information from our systems. We encourage parents to go online with their kids. Here are a few tips to help make a child’s online experience safer:
- Teach kids never to give personal information, unless supervised by a parent or responsible adult. This includes name, address, phone, school, etc.
- Know the sites your kids are visiting and which sites are appropriate.
- Look for Web site privacy policies.
- Know how your child’s information is treated.

SECURITY
The security of your information is important to us and we will use reasonable security measures to prevent the loss, misuse or unauthorized alteration of your information under our control. However, given the inherent risks, we cannot guarantee absolute security and consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk.
EXTERNAL LINKS
