These forms are therefore secure pages as can be seen by the lock icon at the bottom of the browser screen becoming locked.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. Only employees who need specific information to perform a specific job, for example, our customer service representatives, are granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.

We also send the user site and service announcement updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about the service. These emails are administrative in nature and do not contain any marketing, advertising or promotional material.

Notification of Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email.
