We collect certain personally identifiable information from our users at different places within this website. Our definition of personally identifiable information includes any information that may be used to specifically identify or contact you, such as your name, mail address, telephone number, etc. Certain information may not be personally identifiable when standing alone (e.g., your age), but may become so when combined with other information (e.g., your age and address).

Users who do not wish to receive such communications via email can choose to opt-out. Our policy is that email marketing communications will contain an “unsubscribe” function.

We will not sell, trade, rent or disclose the personal information that you provide unless required to do so by law. There are instances in which we may disclose a website user’s personal information to our business partners, affiliates, and subsidiaries to enable them to perform functions on our behalf.
