Technologies Used for Information Collection and Tracking
We may use one or more technologies to accomplish automatic information collection, examples of which are found below.

Your Choices About Our Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Your Information
We strive to provide you with options regarding the personal information you provide to us. If you do not want us to collect your information, as described in this Policy, do not use the Platform. This section describes mechanisms we provide for you to control certain uses and disclosures of your information.
- Tracking Technologies. You can set your browser to refuse all or some cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. To learn how you can manage your Flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player settings page on Adobe’s website. If you disable or refuse cookies or Flash cookies or block the use of other tracking technologies, some parts of the Platform may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
- Email and Promotional Offers. When you contact us through certain forms on the Platform, you may be added to our email list to receive email messages. At any time, you can choose to no longer receive such emails by using the “unsubscribe” method found at the bottom of each email or by sending us an email or other correspondence stating your request.
- Contact us. If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy, have a specific request to correct or delete any personal information that you have provided to us, or if you feel that the Platform has not followed its Privacy Policy or Terms of Use and Service Agreement, feel free to contact us, as provided below. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
If you delete your User Contributions from the Platform, copies of your User Contributions may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other Platform users. Proper access and use of information provided on the Platform, including User Contributions, is governed by our Terms of Use and Service Agreement.
No Collection of Information from Children
Our Platform is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not solicit or knowingly collect any information from visitors under 13 years of age, and please do not use the Platform if you are not yet 13. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us immediately through the Contact Information Section below.
“Do Not Track” Signals
For residents of California and Delaware, certain statutes, including California Bus. & Prof. Code § 22575 and 6 Del.C. § 1205C, seek disclosure of how the Platform responds to web browser “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personal information about their online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. Although it is not clear that the statute applies, we believe that an example might be a browser option allowing you to ask websites not to track you across third-party websites so that they can serve targeted or behavioral advertising to you. You should not use the Platform if you desire a “do not track” signal, because the Platform may not honor it.
Using the Platform from Outside the United States
This Policy is intended to cover collection of information on or via the Platform from residents of and within the United States. If you are downloading or accessing the Platform from outside the United States, please be aware that the data protection laws governing this Platform might not be as restrictive as those in your country. By using the Platform, you understand that your information may be transferred to our facilities and those third-parties with whom we share it as described in this Privacy Policy.
Data Security
We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. We urge you to be careful about downloading, accessing, and giving out information on or through the Platform.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet and mobile applications is never completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted through our Platform. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Platform or utilized by our Clients after your information is transmitted to them.
