Prevent tracking of your online activity

There are different ways you can prevent tracking of your online activity. One of them is setting a preference in your browser that alerts websites you visit that you do not want them to collect certain information about you. This is referred to as a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) signal.

Please note that our websites may not recognize or react in response to DNT signals from Web browsers. At present, there is no universally accepted standard for what a company should do when a DNT signal is detected. In the event a final standard is established, we will assess how to appropriately respond to these signals.

How your information may be shared

We do not sell, lease, rent or give away your information.

Our Affiliates

  • A subpoena, warrant, or other process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction

We will notify you of any such deal and outline your choices in that event.

 

The security of your information

The security of your information is important to us. We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect Your Information from misuse, unauthorized or unlawful access or disclosure, loss, alteration, damage, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Physical safeguards, with locked doors and file cabinets, controlled access to our facilities, and secure destruction of media containing your information

  • Organizational safeguards, like training and awareness programs on security and privacy, to make sure employees understand the importance and means by which they must protect personal information. Our organization’s privacy policies and standards also guide our handling of your information.
