What

How
Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?

Choice/Opt-out
We allow you the choice to opt-out of having your information
used for purposes not directly related to our site, when we ask for the

Until you explicitly opt-in for the first time we consider you in the opt-out
category. We always notify our customers when their information is being

choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require an
