How we protect your personal information
We take appropriate security measures (including
physical, electronic and procedural measures) to help safeguard
your personal information from unauthorized access and disclosure.
For example, only authorized employees are permitted to access
personal information, and they may do so only for permitted business
functions. In addition, we use encryption in the transmission
of your sensitive personal information between your system and
ours, and we use firewalls to help prevent unauthorized persons
from gaining access to your personal information.
We want you to feel confident using our website
to transact business. However, no system can be completely secure.
Therefore, although we take steps to secure your information,
we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal
information, searches, or other communications will always remain
secure. Users should also take care with how they handle and disclose
their personal information and should avoid sending personal information
through insecure email. Please refer to the Federal
Trade Commission’s website for information
about how to protect yourself against identity theft.
