We automatically receive and record information from your device or web browser when you interact with the content.

This information is used for fighting spam/malware, to facilitate the collection of data concerning your interaction with the content (for example, what links you have clicked on and shared with others, including via email and social media), and to otherwise personalize, improve and continue to operate the content and site experience. In general, we collect usage information automatically, such as the number and frequency of visitors to the Site or application. We may use this data to generate statistics on the use of the site. This type of aggregate data enables us and third parties we authorize to determine how often users access parts of the site so that we can analyze and improve them.

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website or administrating activities on our behalf, such as sending out newsletters or surveys.

Third party websites

You may find advertising or other content on our site that links to the properties of our partners, advertisers, sponsors, and other third parties. We do not control the content that appears on these sites and we cannot be held responsible for the activities engaged in by these third party sites. Your interactions with any other site, including sites which are linked to from our site, are subject to that site’s own privacy policy and terms of use. Advertisements appearing on our site may be delivered to your computer or mobile device by advertising partners. These partners may send their own unique cookies through your browser, allowing the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement in order to compile non personal identification information about you or those who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to deliver targeted advertisements which they believe will be most engaging to you. This privacy policy does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

California Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance

Companies that collect personally identifiable information from residents of the State of California and disclose such information to third parties (including affiliated entities) for marketing purposes must, in response to a request by a consumer, either (1) provide a list detailing the categories of information shared and the entities to which such information was provided, or (2) provide a mechanism by which a consumer may opt out of having their information shared in this manner. We have elected to use the second option and you may request that your personal information not be shared with third parties by contacting us through the website.
