What about security?
We have advanced security measures in place to protect the loss, theft, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We protect your information by placing it on a secure portion of the Site and by regularly backing up data, utilizing industry-standard encryption, performing consistency checks with independently recorded log files to prevent tampering, and restricting access to information on our servers via several user authentication technologies. While it is our goal to safeguard personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you submit such information at your own risk and absolve us of any liability. While we do take steps to limit them, our systems, like all computers, are susceptible to "hackers" and others who illegally seek and gain access to information stored on the computers' hard drives and other memory storage devices.
