We may collect information for auditing, research and analysis in order to maintain, protect and improve our websites, products and services.

To Track Site Traffic Information

As you navigate our Website, we may collect certain passive information, including your IP address, browser type and operating system. We may use your IP address to monitor your usage of the site.

Clear GIFs (also known as web beacons) are used in combination with cookies to help the Website operators understand how visitors interact with their web sites. A clear GIF is typically a transparent graphic image (usually 1 pixel x 1 pixel) that is placed on a site. The use of a clear GIF allows the Website to measure the actions of the visitor opening the page that contains the clear GIF. We utilize clear GIFs to measure visitor behavior, to help us improve visitor experience and to manage site content. We may use clear GIFs on this Website, in our emails, in our advertisements on other websites.

In addition, we may use non-business IP addresses and other automated information collected to track aggregate information regarding website traffic.  One of the uses for which this data may be gathered is for statistical purposes so that we may analyze trends and performance over time.

To Transfer Information for Legal Purposes

We may need to disclose certain information to comply with a legal requirement (such as a law, regulation, court order, subpoena or search warrant) in the course of a legal proceeding or in response to a law enforcement agency request. If we undergo a change of control (whether by merger, sale or otherwise), or a sale or transfer of our business, stock or assets, Personal Information could be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction and your Personal Information could be used by the purchaser or other recipient of such information.

For Data Aggregation

We may disclose aggregated, non-personal data generated from our Website to third parties. Depending on the circumstances, we may or may not charge third parties for this aggregated, non-personal data. You grant us the right to accept payment or other remuneration for such data. We require parties with whom we share aggregated, non-personal data to agree that they will not attempt to make this information personally identifiable.

For Use With Third Parties

We may hire third parties to provide services on our behalf, such as performing statistical analysis, developing websites and answering customer service and billing questions. We will give those third parties only the Personal Information they need to deliver the service for which they have been hired. We may also share your Personal Information with vendors or other third parties in order for them to provide you with offers that we think you will find valuable.

As you know, no security system or system of transmitting data over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, you should not expect that any information provided to us or to any third party will always remain private.

Do Not Track Browser Setting

Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as using or collecting information in connection with a single website. For these purposes tracking refers to collecting personally identifiable information from consumers who use or visit a website or online service as they move across different websites over time.

How browsers communicate the Do Not Track signal is not yet uniform. As a result, we may not interpret or respond to Do Not Track signals communicated by your browser. Even so, as described more fully throughout this Privacy Policy, we limit our use and collection of your personal information.

For a description of Do Not Track protocols for browsers and mobile devices, or simply to learn more about the choices available to you, you can visit the All About Do Not Track website: http://allaboutdnt.com
