Protecting your information
We take great care in implementing and maintaining the security of the Site and your information. We employ industry standard procedures and policies to ensure the safety of the information we collect and retain, and prevent unauthorized use of any such information, and we require any third party to comply with similar security requirements, in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We use browser encryption and store all data on secure servers and devices. While we take all reasonable precautions to safeguard your information, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can be insecure at times and therefore we are unable to guarantee the security of user data beyond what is reasonably practical. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the acts of those who gain unauthorized access or abuse our Site, and we make no warranty, express, implied or otherwise, that we can prevent such access.
Cookies
We and our trusted partners use cookies and other technologies in our related services, including when you visit our Site or access our services.

and the Google Privacy Policy.
