Visitors to Our Web Site. Visitors to our web site remain anonymous, unless they apply for an account with us or otherwise elect to disclose their identity to us. Although we do not collect personally identifying information about persons who simply visit our site, we do collect certain limited information about visitors, such as their IP address (a numeric address assigned automatically to computers when they access the Internet). We also may place “cookies” on a computer to track a visitor’s use of our web site. A cookie is a piece of data that is stored on your hard drive. It takes up very little room on your system and helps us to customize our site and make its navigation easier for you. We sometimes use cookies to help estimate the number of visitors to our site and to determine which areas are the most popular. Unless you open an account with us, the cookie does not provide us with personal information about you.

You also may not receive tailored advertising or other offers from us that may be relevant to your interests and needs.
