Website Visitors

Like most website operators, we collect information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, referring site, the date-time of visitor request and some other metrics. Our purpose in collecting such information is to better understand how our visitors use our website, to make the website more customized and optimized to visitor, to make security revisions of our systems and for similar important reasons. From time to time, we may release non-PII in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

We only disclose non-Pii under the same circumstances that we disclose Pii (as described below).

Gathering of Pii

Your personal data is used to provide the information, goods and services, for billing, order fulfillment and other essential functions offered through our website to you. The amount and type of information our site gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, when we permit some kind of functionality on our website (like: Registrations, comments, feedback forms or other common interactional functionalities) then visitor who tries to use such functionality, may be asked to provide a name, username, email address or similar common personal information.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, and we protect personal information by reasonable security safeguards against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure or use, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, as there exist 3^rd party factors that are not under our control (internet provider, the server where our sites are hosted, the infrastructure or management system which serves our website and some other 3^rd party factors). While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

When you see that our website starts with HTTPS://, then it means our website uses secure sockets layers (SSL), which encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us.
