You should be aware, however, that no system is 100% secure from hackers, network failure and error, and we cannot guarantee the confidentiality, security and integrity of information maintained on our site.

OUR COMMITMENT TO CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

We respect the privacy of children and “child” means an individual under the age of 13. All information and content on this website is intended for individuals over the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under the age of 13.

COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

When you visit or interact with our website, we may use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies in order to operate our web-site and services, to improve our performance, or to give you extra functionalities so that we can provide you with a better experience. Like many other websites, we use “cookies” (explained more fully below) to collect some non-personally identifiable information such as your IP address, geographic location, language preference and dates you visit our website. In conjunction with the use of cookies, third parties may also use web beacons (also known as clear GIFs, web bugs or pixel tags) to collect general information about your use of our website. These web beacons monitor user activity and are used to track customer behavior data which may be relevant to third parties such as the ad networks used on our website to customize advertising based on your behavior and interests.

We may use social media pixels to track and collect general information about your use in compliance with different social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc) for the purpose of promoting products, tracking conversions, running target advertisements and so forth. Third parties like Facebook may use their own cookies, web beacons and other technologies to collect and receive information from our website for the purpose of providing target advertisements. You may see our ads on Facebook after you have visited our website. We do not authorize third parties to collect any other personal information from our websites unless you provide it to them directly.

What Are Cookies and How to Disable Them
A “cookie” is a small piece of information that we place in your computer browser to collect information regarding your preferences. We use cookies to identify you when you visit us and to keep track of where you go so we can provide you with a personalized version of our site. Cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information. The majority of web browsers accept cookies and similar files, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies by changing your browser settings. The “Help” portion on the toolbar of most web browsers may tell you how to prevent your web browser from accepting new cookies, how to disable cookies or notify you when you receive a new cookie. Further, a number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit websites anonymously. If you turn off cookies, you will not have access to some of the features that make your experience on our site smoother, and some of our services may not function properly.

EMAIL MARKETING & OPT OUT

Our website gives you the option to sign up for our mailing list. When you subscribe and opt in, you consent to receive our newsletters, updates, messages, email marketing, promotional materials and other content related to this website. We comply with the CAN-SPAM Act and do not spam or send misleading information.

In the event you no longer wish to receive communication from us, you have the option of unsubscribing by clicking “unsubscribe” in the bottom of the email.

THIRD PARTY & SOCIAL NETWORK POSTING TOOLS

Our site may contain links to other websites, including those of advertisers, sponsors and/or social networks (such as Facebook and Instagram) that are outside our control. Once you click on a third party link and leave this website, you are no longer bound by our Privacy Policy or Terms and Conditions. The information practices on those sites may be different from ours and are not covered by our policy. We encourage you to consult the privacy notices on those sites. 

AFFILIATE LINKS

In some instances, we may include affiliate links on our website or in our communications (such as blogs) where we recommend specific products or services. One such program we may use is Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. If you purchase something through one of our affiliate links, we receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. These links are always disclosed.
