If you choose to decline cookies, note that some parts of the Site may not function properly.

Third-Party Providers: We may employ the services of third-party providers to aid us in certain aspects of our operations (such as the distribution of our email products or conducting a survey for us). Depending on the services performed, some of these providers may be provided with your personal data. These contractors would be subject to confidentiality agreements which limit their use and disclosure of all information they obtain through their relationship with us to related business only, consistent with this policy.

 

Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)

COPPA is a U.S. law that restricts how websites can collect information about children. According to the Federal Trade Commission, “The Rule applies to operators of commercial websites and online services directed to children under 13 that collect, use, or disclose personal information from children, and operators of general audience websites or online services with actual knowledge that they are collecting, using, or disclosing personal information from children under 13.”

 

The Site does not specifically operate in a way to direct children under 13 and does not collect, use, or disclose personal information from visitors known to be under 13.
