• E-mail Communications: We do not compare your information with customer lists of other companies nor do we share our list with other entities. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Customer Communication Preferences.

• Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser.
• The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to make the most of your experience, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.

• We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts sensitive information you input.
• It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
