Contact information from the order form is used to send news and information about our
company to our customers. The customer's contact information is also used to
communicate with the customer when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving
future notices or mailings by following the opt-out procedures; see the
choice/opt-out section below. Financial information that is collected is used to
bill the customer for products and services and is never distributed to other
parties, unless specifically requested by the customer.
Our online surveys ask visitors for contact information. We use contact data
from our surveys to send the user information about our company. The customer's
contact information is also used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users
may opt-out of receiving future notices or mailings; see the choice/opt-out
