Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this privacy policy explaining our information practices on how we collect, use or disclose your personal information gathered from, and posted on, this site. This privacy policy may be changed at any time; if any changes are made, they will be posted to this page.
Cookies are files that contain information created by a web server that can be stored on a user’s hard disk for use either during a particular session (“per-session” cookie) or for future use (“persistent” cookie). For each visitor to our website, our web server collects general information that does not identify a specific visitor or a visitor’s email address. Only the host name or IP address (a unique number that is assigned to your computer every time you connect to the Internet) from which the site was accessed are identified. We use this information to calculate the number of visitors to the different sections of our site, and to identify behaviors while visiting our site. A similar tracking method is also used for recipients of our emails.
Cookies are not used to disseminate significant information about users over the Internet or to analyze any information that users have knowingly or unknowingly provided. When a user visits the site for the first time, the system will ask whether the user approves of the attachment of a cookie. Users may instruct their Internet browsers to opt out of accepting a “persistent” cookie and rather accept only a “per-session” cookie but will need to login each time they visit the site to enjoy the full benefits. If the user declines the attachment of any cookie, the user may not have access to the full benefits of the website.
