Security of Your Information
The security of your personal information is important to us. Please remember, however, that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

As a result, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information transmitted to us or posted on the Site, so you do so at your own risk and should take care in deciding what information you elect to send electronically or post.

If you are under 13, please do not give us any personal information or further access or use the Site.
