IS INFORMATION ABOUT ME SECURE?
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to help protect your Personal Information including without limitation:

We seek to protect Personal Information to ensure that it is kept private; however, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is ever 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time.
