3. Information We Collect and How We Use It:

b. Use of Cookies:
We may use cookies to personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies. If you reject cookies by changing your browser settings, then be aware that this may disable some of the functionality on our website.
c. User Input:
When you visit our websites you may register to purchase and/or subscribe to various products and services, chat with our staff, and sign up to receive text messages. When you use these services, we may request some personal information such as name, address, email, telephone number, account number, and other relevant information. If you are purchasing a product or service, we will request financial information. Any financial information we collect is used only to bill you for the services and/or products you purchased. If you purchase by credit card, this information may be forwarded to your credit card provider. For other types of registrations, we will ask for the relevant information. You may also be asked to disclose personal information to us so that we can provide assistance and information to you. For example, such data may be warranted in order to provide online technical support and troubleshooting.
The security, integrity, and confidentiality of your information is extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures that are designed to protect the information we collect from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, and modification. We regularly review our security procedures to consider appropriate new technology and methods.

4. Use of Web Beacons or GIF Files:
Our website may contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes also called single-pixel gifs) that allow us to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver co- branded services. We may include web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.
Some of these web beacons may be placed by third-party service providers to help determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email communications. These web beacons may be used by these service providers to place a persistent cookie on your computer. This allows the service provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn enables us and our service providers to learn which advertisements and emails bring you to our website and how you use the site. We prohibit web beacons from being used to collect or access your personal information.
5. Changes to this Policy:
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last Updated” date of this Privacy Policy. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy on the website, and you waive the right to receive specific notice of each such change or modification. You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed about how we are helping to protect the personal information we collect. Your continued use of our website and services constitutes your agreement to this Privacy Policy and any updates.
