We intend to take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the Personal Information that you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that an individual under the age of 16 is submitting information without consent from their parent or legal guardian or as permitted under applicable law, we will delete the information as soon as possible from our database. If you believe we are collecting information about an individual under 16, please notify us immediately so that we can take appropriate action.
