Please read the following description of our policies and practices regarding your Personal Information.

Wherever possible, we will identify the purposes for which Personal Information is collected at or before the time the Personal Information is collected.

For these purposes, we may disclose your Personal Information to these agents, service providers and other organizations.

Some web browsers may transmit “do not track” signals to the websites and other online services with which the browser communicates. There is no standard that governs what, if anything, websites and online services should do when such signals are received. We do not currently take action in response to these signals. If a standard for responding is established, we will update the Privacy Policy on responding to these signals.
