statement will be continuously
assessed against new technologies,
business practices and our
customers' needs.
What
Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may

Email

your email address and our

protections for these electronic

2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology called “cookies” (see explanation below, “What Are Cookies?”) and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site. This information is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information is associated with you as an individual.
How Do We
Use the Information That You Provide
to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal
information for purposes of
administering our business
activities, providing customer
service and making available other
products and services to our
customers and prospective customers.
Occasionally, we may also use the
information we collect to notify you
about important changes to our Web
site, new services and special
offers we think you will find
valuable. The lists used to send you
product and service offers are
developed and managed under our
traditional corporate standards
designed to safeguard the security
and privacy of our customers’
personal information. As a customer,
you will be given the opportunity,
at least once annually, to notify us
of your desire not to receive these
offers.
What Are Cookies? Cookies are a feature of Web browser software that allows Web servers to recognize the computer used to access a Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored by a user’s Web browser on the user’s hard drive. Cookies can remember what information a user accesses on one Web page to simplify subsequent interactions with that Web site by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user’s transactions on related Web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from Web page to Web page over the Internet. Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized.
How Do We
Use Information We Collect from
Cookies?
We use Web site browser software
tools such as cookies and Web server
logs to gather information about our
Web site users’ browsing activities,
in order to constantly improve our
Web site and better serve our
customers. This information assists
us to design and arrange our Web
pages in the most user-friendly
manner and to continually improve
our Web site to better meet the
needs of our customers and
prospective customers.
Cookies help us collect important business and technical statistics. The information in the cookies lets us trace the paths followed by users to our Web site as they move from one page to another. Web server logs allow us to count how many people visit our Web site and evaluate our Web site’s visitor capacity. We do not use these technologies to capture your individual email address or any personally identifying information about you although they do permit us to send focused online banner advertisements or other such responses to you.
Evaluation of Information Protection Practices. Periodically, our operations and business practices are reviewed for compliance with corporate policies and procedures governing the security, confidentiality and quality of our information.
Employee Access, Training and Expectations. Our corporate values, ethical standards, policies and practices are committed to the protection of customer information. In general, our business practices limit employee access to confidential information, and limit the use and disclosure of such information to authorized persons, processes and transactions.
What About
Legally Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
We may disclose information when
legally compelled to do so, in other
words, when we, in good faith,
believe that the law requires it or
for the protection of our legal
rights.
What About
Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web
Site?
We are not responsible for the
practices employed by Web sites
linked to or from our Web site nor
the information or content contained
therein. Often links to other Web
sites are provided solely as
pointers to information on topics
that may be useful to the users of

including Web sites which have a
link on our Web site, is subject to
that Web site’s own rules and
policies. Please read over those
