Cookies

This website uses “cookies,” which are small files saved on your computer that store preferences and other information via your browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer, as examples only), which then may be used on web pages you visit. These cookies uniquely identify a web browser on a specific computer, but aren’t used to identify an individual person. If you use multiple browsers or computers, each one has a different cookie.

We share information about your use of our website with our trusted social media, advertising and analytics partners, such as Google and Facebook. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies to collect or receive information from this website and elsewhere on the internet to provide measurement services and target ads.

Remarketing keeps track of everyone who visits this website and follows users wherever they go on other websites to show them our targeted ads. Through use of cookies, Google (or other, similar third-party sites) will remember you visited our website in the past and display our advertisements within the other websites you visit. Google can only show the ads on websites that are part of the Google Display Network.

Security

We only collect personal information that website visitors voluntarily provide, whether via filling out forms or opting into cookies. These details are kept confidential, and we do not sell information to any third-party entities. While we implement a variety of security precautions to protect all personal information submitted through this website, we cannot guarantee its absolute security, as no method of online data transmission or storage is 100% secure.  While we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.  

As noted in our disclaimer, this website may contain links to other third-party entities. Just as we are not in control of the content contained on these outside websites, neither are we responsible for their privacy policies and practices.
