Cookies
Like many sites, we use “cookies” to collect information. Cookies are files with a small amount of data, which may include a unique anonymous identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a web site and stored on your computer’s hard drive.
We use Google Analytics to track your activity on our Website. This software uses cookies to record your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Website that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.
The software will save a cookie to your computer’s hard drive to track and monitor your engagement and use of our Website. But will not store, save or collect personal information. You can read Google’s privacy policy here for further information [http://www.google.com/privacy.html]. These data remain anonymous and are only used by us to improve our Website and services.
You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when the website sends a cookie. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some of our Website.
You may be able to opt-out of such “remarketing” or “retargeting” cookies used by Google to generate interest-based advertising by following the instructions on the Google advertising opt-out page. Your use of this Website without opting out means that you understand and agree to data collection to provide you with interest-based advertising using Google’s remarketing ads.
If you are using one of the common Internet web browsers, you can set up your browser to either let you know when you receive a cookie or deny cookie access to your computer. Some cookies are required for certain parts of this Website to work correctly, for example, all pages that need a login.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

This Privacy Policy is effective as of the date above. It will remain in effect except concerning any future changes, which will immediately be in effect after being posted on this page.
We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy at any time, and you should check this Privacy Policy periodically. After we post any modifications to the Privacy Policy on this page, your continued use of the Service will constitute your acknowledgement of the modifications and your consent to abide and be bound by the modified Privacy Policy.
Suppose we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy. In that case, we will notify you either through the email address you have provided us or by placing a prominent notice on our Website.
