We may monitor and record phone calls, e-mails, live chats, or other communications between You and our Support Team or other employees or representatives.

Information We Collect Automatically: We automatically collect a variety of information associated with Your use of our Services. Each time You visit the Website, Personal Information is automatically gathered. In general, this information does not identify You personally. Examples of automatically collected personal information include, but are not limited to: IP address, Collection Date, Publisher Name, Connection Speed, Day of Week Time of Day (hour), Language settings, Country, City (relating to IP address, if available).

For example, some of the ways we may automatically collect information include:
• Cookies and similar technologies:
• “Cookies:” A “cookie” is a small text file that a web site can place on Your computer’s hard drive in order, for example, to collect information about Your activities on the Website. The cookie transmits this information back to the Website’s computer, which, generally speaking, is the only computer that can read it. We need to use cookies on the Website to enhance the users’ experience and avoid multiple logins or password authentication requests.
• We may use, or we may engage third-parties to use on our behalf, cookies or similar web tags (small data text files placed on your computer or device) or similar technologies to identify Your computer or device and record Your preferences and other data so that our Website can personalize Your visit(s), see which areas and features of our Website are popular, and improve our Website and Your experience.
• Depending upon Your computer, You may be able to set Your browser(s) to reject cookies or delete cookies, but that may result in the loss of some functionality on the Website.
• “Web Beacons:” We may also use web beacons (small graphic images on a web page or an HTML e-mail) to monitor interaction with our website or e-mails. Web beacons are generally invisible because they are very small (only 1-by-1 pixel) and the same color as the background of the web page or e-mail message.
• Web Browsing Activity: When accessing our Website, We automatically collect certain information about Your computer and Your visit, such as your IP address, browser type, date and time, the web page You visited before visiting our Website, Your activities and purchases on our Website, and other analytical information associated with the Website.

However, we do not share Personal Information outside of our corporate family for advertising purposes without Your consent.

How We Store and Protect Information Collected About You

Protecting Your Information: We use a variety of physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure while it is under our control.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. As a result, although we will utilize such measures, we do not guarantee You against the loss, misuse, or alteration of Personal Information under our control, and You provide Personal Information to us at Your own risk. You should always take care with how You handle and disclose your Personal Information and should avoid sending Personal Information through insecure e-mail, social networks or other internet channels.

Retention and Disposal: We retain information only for as long as we have a business or tax need or as applicable laws, regulations and/or government orders allow. When we dispose of Personal Information, we use reasonable procedures designed to erase or render it unreadable (for example, shredding documents and wiping electronic media).

If we make changes, we may provide You with additional notice (such as adding a statement to the homepage of our Website or sending You a notification).
