We recognise that many people are concerned about the privacy and protection of information as it is transmitted over the Internet. You should keep in mind that the possibility exists for unauthorised individuals to intercept any e-mail message you send over the Internet.

We are not responsible for the privacy of e-mail messages except those stored in our system. We use the following practices on our website to enhance the level of security for communication and the transmission of personal information: - We have taken reasonable steps to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of personally identifiable information that you may provide.
