Privacy Policy

When you access the Website, the Company will learn certain information about you during your visit.

 

Information You Provide To Us. The Website provides various places for users to provide information. We collect information that users provide by filling out forms on the Website, communicating with us via contact forms, responding to surveys, search queries on our search feature, providing comments or
other feedback, and providing information when ordering a product or service via the Website.

 

We use information you provide to us to deliver the requested product and/or service, to improve our overall performance, and to provide you with offers, promotions, and information.

 

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technology. As you navigate through our
Website, we may use automatic data collection technologies including Google Analytics to collect
certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns. This will generally include

information about your location, your traffic pattern through our website, and any communications
between your computer and our Website. Among other things, we will collect data about the type of
computer you use, your Internet connection, your IP address, your operating system, and your browser
type.

The information we collect automatically is used for statistical data and will not include personal
information. We use this data to improve our Website and our service offerings. To the extent that you
voluntarily provide personal information to us, our systems will associate the automatically collected
information with your personal information.

​

USE OF COOKIES AND PIXELS
Similar to other commercial websites, our website uses a standard technology called “cookies” and
server logs to collect information about how our site is used. Information gathered through cookies and
server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our site, and the
websites visited just before and just after our own, as well as your IP address.

A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you
visit a website, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your
hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if
your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to
access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

The Company reserves the right to use technological equivalents of cookies, including social media
pixels. These pixels allow social media sites to track visitors to outside websites so as to tailor advertising
messages users see while visiting that social media website. The Company reserves the right to use
these pixels in compliance with the policies of the various social media sites.

EMAIL INFORMATION
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of your email messages
together with your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections for these
electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of information received online, mail, and
telephone. This also applies when you register for our website, sign up through any of our forms using
your email address or make a purchase on this site. For further information see the email policies below.
