We created this Website Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to give you confidence as you visit and use the Site, and to provide you with guidelines that will apply to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the Site, and not to any other websites that you may be able to access from the Site, each of which may have data collection, storage, and use practices and policies that differ materially from this Privacy Policy.
