Personally Identifiable Information
When you visit our site you are not required to provide any personal information unless you choose to do so. Our web server will recognize the domain name/Internet Protocol (IP) address from which you are accessing this site and certain other technical facts (such as the operating system and web browser that you are using), but not your e-mail address or other personally identifying information. By using this site, you consent to the recognition of your domain name/IP address.
Personally identifiable information will not be collected unless you voluntarily send an email message or fill out and submit an online form (or live chat) or fill out and return a survey. Information provided in any of these or similar ways will be considered to be voluntarily provided by the visitor and will be treated in the same manner as information provided in written form. You may of course choose not to participate in these activities and such a choice will not impair your ability to browse.
