Security

Due to the rapidly evolving nature of information technologies, no transmission of information over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While I am committed to protecting user privacy, I cannot guarantee the security of any information users transmit to the site, and users do so at their own risk.

  • I have appropriate security measures in place in the hosting facilities to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that I have collected from you at my site.
  • Once I receive user information, I will use reasonable safeguards consistent with prevailing industry standards and commensurate with the sensitivity of the data being stored to maintain the security of that information on my systems.
