Privacy Policy

Updated: December, 2010

How we protect and store personal information

Throughout this policy, we use the term "personal information" to describe information that can be associated with a specific person and can be used to identify that person. We do not consider personal information to include information that has been anonymous so that it does not identify a specific user.

We store and process your personal information on our computers in the US, and we protect it by maintaining physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in compliance with applicable US federal and state regulations. We use computer safeguards such as firewalls and data encryption, we enforce physical access controls to our buildings and files, and we authorize access to personal information only for those employees who require it to fulfill their job responsibilities.

How we use the personal information we collect

Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. We may use your personal information to:

  • provide the services and customer support you request
  • process transactions and send notices about your transactions
  • resolve disputes, collect fees, and troubleshoot problems
  • prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities
  • customize, measure, and improve our services and the content and layout of our website
  • compare information for accuracy and verify it with the information on file
