VI. We Cannot Guarantee The Security of the Website
We take seriously our obligation to safeguard the confidentiality, security and integrity of personal information collected from our users. As you can see, the Website uses an SSL (or “secure sockets layer”) certificate, which provides secure, encrypted communications between a website and internet browser. You should be aware, however, that no system is completely secure from hackers and network failure and error, and we cannot guarantee the confidentiality, security and integrity of information maintained on our Website for that reason.
VII. Notification of Changes
Any changes in our Privacy Policy will be posted to this Website and, if you have opted to receive emails from us, via email, and will become effective as of the date of posting with respect to information we then collect in the future but will not be changed with respect to information that we have then already collected. Please review our Privacy Policy from time to time to make sure you are aware of any changes.
