We also allow third parties (including Google) to use third party cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information about how you interact with our Services and elsewhere on the Internet and use that information to provide analytics and other measurements services, and to deliver and target advertisements tailored to you.

We use Google Analytics to evaluate the use of our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and other identifiers to collect information, such as how often users visit a Site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other websites they visited prior to visiting our website.

Our Services are not directed to minors under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly sell or share for purposes of behavioral advertising the personal information of minors, including minors under 16 years of age.
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, including social media buttons that link to social media platforms. This Policy does not govern how those third parties or social media platforms collect or use personal information and we do not endorse or have control over their practices. The privacy policies and terms of use for those third parties’ websites/apps or social media platforms govern those companies’ privacy practices. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any third-party websites or platforms.
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information provided via the Services from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, there is no perfect security, and reasonable security is a process that involves risk management rather than risk elimination. While we are committed to maintaining a reasonable information security program, no such program can be perfect; in other words, all risk cannot reasonably be eliminated. Data security incidents and breaches can occur due to factors that cannot reasonably be prevented. Accordingly, it cannot be assumed that the occurrence of any given incident or breach results from our failure to implement and maintain reasonable security.
We will review and update this Policy from time to time. If changes are made, we will update the Privacy Policy and reflect the date of such modification in the date above. Depending on the type of change, we may notify you of the change by posting on this page or by email. Please review this policy periodically, and especially before you provide any personal information.

Consumer Rights Under Comprehensive U.S. State Data Privacy Laws
We may be subject to state privacy laws in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia which give state residents various rights with respect to many types of personal information we collect about them, with some exceptions. In addition, there are state privacy laws in other states that come into effect after the date of this Privacy Policy including laws in Delaware and Nebraska (effective Jan. 1, 2025) and New Jersey (effective Jan. 15, 2025).
The rights provided under these laws are similar in many respects, with some differences from state to state. We list below the rights that may be applicable to our business under these laws, noting that not all rights are available under each state’s law:
Right to Know: The right to confirm whether we are processing a resident’s personal information and to access such data. Laws in some states provide the right to know more detailed information.
Right to Access / Copy: The right to access or request a copy of the personal information we have collected from the resident, subject to certain exceptions.
Right to Delete: The right to request deletion of their personal information that we have collected from or about the resident and to have such information deleted, subject to certain exceptions.
Right to Correct: The right to request that we correct inaccuracies in the resident’s personal information, taking into account the nature of personal data and purposes of processing such information.
Right to Limit the Use of Sensitive Personal Information: California’s law gives residents the right to request that we not use or disclose their sensitive personal information for inferring characteristics about a consumer or for purposes other than to provide goods and services, protect and investigate fraud and other security-related issues, nonpersonalized advertising, and similar purposes described in the law.
Rights to Opt Out: Various rights to request that we stop using the resident’s personal information for one or more of the following purposes:
Please note, California’s law is the only law that applies to all state residents, irrespective of the context in which they interact with us (e.g., a customer, a business contact, a vendor). Laws in other states apply only to people when acting in an individual or household context.
We have a separate Consumer Health Data Privacy Notice that relates to rights provided under consumer health data privacy laws in Nevada and Washington state to residents of those states acting in an individual or household context with respect to their consumer health data. Washington’s law may also apply to individuals whose consumer health data is processed in that state. You can access our Consumer Health Data Privacy Notice here.
We will respond to requests from residents of states with data privacy laws that apply to us and will do so with respect to the rights that are provided under the requestor’s state law as of the effective date of that law. The laws in some states listed above may not be in effect as of the date of this Privacy Policy.
To exercise rights to know, access/copy, delete, correct, or know third parties to whom personal information is disclosed, submit a request by contacting us at [email protected]. We will provide a substantive response to these requests within 45 days of the date on which we receive your request. If we require additional information or time to process your requests, we will contact you.
We do not respond to the DNT or “Do Not Track” signal.
Exercising Your Rights Using Authorized Agents
If an agent submits an opt-out request on your behalf, the agent will need to provide us with your signed permission indicating the agent has been authorized to submit the opt-out request on your behalf. Agents can submit opt-out requests by emailing [email protected].
If you are a California resident and you use an agent to submit other types of requests, the agent will need to provide us with your signed permission indicating the agent has been authorized to submit the request on your behalf. You will also be required to verify your identity directly with us or confirm with us that you provided the agent with permission to submit the request. Agents can submit requests on behalf of California residents (other than opt-out requests) to [email protected].
Please note that this subsection does not apply when an agent is authorized to act on your behalf pursuant to a valid power of attorney. Any such requests will be processed in accordance with state law pertaining to powers of attorney.
When you exercise rights other than opt-out rights and the right to limit collection of sensitive personal information, we will take steps to verify your identity. We will ask you for different types of identifying information, depending on the nature of the request, and attempt to match those to information that we maintain or collect about you.
If we are unable to verify your identity with the degree of certainty required, we will not be able to respond to the request. We will notify you to explain the basis of the denial.
In some cases, we may not act on your requests (e.g., if we cannot do so under other laws that apply). When this is the case, we will explain our reasons for not providing you with the information or taking the action (e.g., correcting data) you requested.
Additionally, you have the right to appeal our decision by contacting us at [email protected] within 30 days after your receipt of our decision.
If you exercise any of the rights explained in this Privacy Policy, we will continue to treat you fairly. If you exercise your rights under this Privacy Policy, you will not be denied or charged different prices or rates for goods or services or provided a different level or quality of goods or services than others.
If there are any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or to request a copy of this Privacy Policy in another format you may contact us at [email protected].
