Some of the recipients to whom we disclose your Personal Information as contemplated in, and in accordance with, this Policy may be located in jurisdictions outside your jurisdiction of residence. As a result, your Personal Information may be used, stored and/or accessed in countries outside of your jurisdiction of residence, including for residents of Canada or Mexico within the United States.

4. DATA SECURITY

We take the protection of your Personal Information seriously. We protect Personal Information against loss and theft as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, and modification using security safeguards, including physical, organization and technological measures, commensurate with the sensitivity of your Personal Information. Employees who have access to your information are made aware of the importance of keeping it confidential.

Where we use service providers who might have access to your Personal Information, we require them to have privacy and security standards that are comparable to ours. We use contracts and other measures with our service providers to maintain the confidentiality and security of your Personal Information and to prevent it from being used for any other purpose.

However, since no method of electronic storage is 100% secure, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of the information stored. We also cannot guarantee that information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.

We retain Personal Information that we collect only as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to meet any applicable legal requirements.

In some instances, you may be required to choose a user ID and password when you register for the Services. To the extent user IDs and passwords are utilized, you may not share your user ID and password with anyone else, and you are solely responsible for maintaining and protecting the confidentiality of your user ID and password.
