When you provide us with your information you acknowledge that this information may be stored and processed on servers located anywhere in the World, including either inside or outside of the USA or the European Economic Area ("EEA").

Security
Because security is important to us, we exercise care in providing secure transmission of your personal information before it is transferred across the Internet from your personal computer to our secure servers. We use industry-standard, secure-socket-layer (SSL) technology, which is utilized by most popular browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Internet Explorer, to encrypt (or convert into code) most of your personal information before it is transferred across the Internet. To further safeguard your most sensitive credit card information, we transfer such information across the Internet in an encrypted format. Remember to close your browser window when you have finished a purchase in order to ensure that others cannot access your personal information. We will permit only authorized employees, who are trained in the proper handling of personal data, to access your personal information.
To further protect your personal information, we have a security system that includes: firewall technologies; logical network segmentation, allowing restricted access to stored profile information; encryption; and logical and physical security restrictions to our databases and systems.
However, you should be aware that there is always some risk involved in transmitting information over the Internet. There is also some risk that others could find a way to thwart our security systems. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security and privacy of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
If you are aware of a security vulnerability and would like to report it to us, please do so either using the “Contact us” form on our website or via email at [email protected].
