We use commercially reasonable procedures to protect the personal information that we collect from you against loss, theft and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. We have developed and implemented and continue to maintain and monitor a written information security program applicable to all records containing personal information. This security program is appropriate to the size, scope and type of our business, the resources available to us, the amount of stored data and the need for security and confidentiality of the personal information we store.
No security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases or the security during transmission to us of the information you supply over the internet.

Change your passwords often using a combination of letters and numbers, and make sure to use a secure web browser.
