TERMS OF SERVICE AND PRIVACY POLICY

Last Modified: November 1, 2017

Upon acceptance by you, the following terms and conditions, together with any documents they incorporate by reference (collectively, the “Terms of Service”) will constitute a binding agreement between you and ARPM, LLC (“ARPM”, “we” or “us”). These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the following services (collectively, the “Services”) provided by ARPM:


- arpm.co and all linked pages owned and operated by ARPM (collectively, the “Website”);
- all cloud or other online services we provide to you (whether accessed through the Website or any software application we license to you), including, but not limited to, ARPM LinkedIn Group, ARPM Research Paper Series, ARPM Downloadable Resources, ARPM Newsletter, ARPM Marathon and ARPM MOOC;
- all online e-commerce services available on or through the Website that allow for the purchase of licenses to certain content on the Website, including, but not limited to, the ARPM Lab;
- all software managed by ARPM, whether accessed through Website pages owned and operated by ARPM or by a third party;
- the ARPM Certificate; and
- the ARPM Bootcamp®.

These Terms of Service also govern your use of text, images, videos, icons, graphics, data, and software code available on the Website, including, but not limited to, the ARPM Lab.

BY ACCESSING OR USING THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES (OR BY CLICKING TO ACCEPT OR AGREE TO THE TERMS OF SERVICE FOR PARTICULAR SERVICES WHEN THIS OPTION IS MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU), YOU ARE INDICATING THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, THEN YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO AND YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES. If you accept or agree to these Terms of Service on behalf of a company or other legal entity, then you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms of Service and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer and apply to that company or other legal entity.

Technology Requirements

ARPM aims to provide platform support for a wide array of browsers and mobile devices. However, some devices and browsers may not be supported. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you have sufficient and compatible hardware, software, telecommunications equipment, and internet service necessary for use of the Website.

Accounts

Any individual who agrees to these Terms of Service and/or who accesses the Services will be considered a “User”.

A User may be given access to the Services and functionality that we may establish and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion. Not all Website features may be enabled for all Users. We may offer and maintain different types of accounts for different types of Users. For example, some Users may sign up for the ARPM Bootcamp® whereas others will choose only to use the ARPM Lab.

To set up an account and access some of the Services and functionality, you may be asked to provide certain registration details or other information. You agree in this regard to provide accurate information, and keep your information up-to-date. If you choose, or are provided with, a username, password or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you must treat such information as confidential. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols) with your User account. You must notify us immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your User account. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information. We have the right to disable any username, password or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms of Service. We will not be liable and you will be responsible for any losses caused by any access and use of your User account, unauthorized or otherwise, unless otherwise required by law.

Content

The term “Content” as used in these Terms of Service comprises both Provider Content and User-Generated Content. “Provider Content” refers to courses, text, images, links, videos, data, spreadsheets, software code, and other resources or materials that ARPM makes available on the Website, including material imported or linked to from locations controlled by us on third party services such as Vimeo, YouTube, etc., and material from the organizations, content development partners, third-party content providers, publishers, or other licensors who grant us permission to make their content available on the Website (collectively, “Content Providers”). “User-Generated Content” includes highlights, notes, comments, chats, answers, votes, and other user inputs that Users post or transmit on the Website.

You agree to use the Content available through the Services in compliance with the applicable usage terms established by ARPM, its Content Providers, or any third party that provides you with software or hardware that allows you to access any of the Content. For example, if you buy a license to a Service, you agree to use such license in accordance with these Terms of Service. In addition, your use of the Services through ARPM mobile applications may also be governed by the End-User License Agreements of third party app stores.

Under no circumstance will ARPM be liable in any way for any Content including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Services.

In addition to any other applicable terms and conditions contained herein, the following terms and conditions will apply with regard to Content on the Website:

• Unless otherwise expressly specified in writing, you are authorized to use Content only for your own personal use .

• Certain Content and other portions of the Services may include security technology that limits your use of the Content or Service. You will not violate, circumvent, disassemble, reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise tamper with any of the security technology related to the Services for any reason, or help another person to do so.

• You will only access Content authorized or licensed to your account and through permissible methods.

• Except as permitted by software (including ARPM mobile applications) or other means of accessing the Content licensed or provided to you by ARPM or otherwise expressly authorized, you will not modify any Content in any manner or form, or use modified versions of the Content, for any purpose, including unauthorized access to such Content or the Services.

• At our discretion or at the request or discretion of our Content Providers or otherwise, we may impose restrictions on your use of Content, which may include imposing conditions or limitations on, or preventing, your ability to print or copy and paste Content.

• Your access to any Content may be restricted as to the number of devices on which you can access any Content and on the number of Users who can concurrently access Content.

With regard to User-Generated Content:

• You agree that you will submit or contribute only Content that you have created and/or have the right or permission to post.

• You retain ownership of the User-Generated Content that you post, but you provide us with a perpetual license to distribute, publish, display, retain, or otherwise use it in accordance with applicable agreements.

• You understand that we may monitor User-Generated Content, although we have no obligation to do so, and we reserve the right to edit, block, or remove any User-Generated Content at any time without notice and at our sole discretion.

• You assume all responsibility for the Content that you post, transmit, or make available to the Website, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted.

• You are solely responsible, at your own expense, for making any copies of your User-Generated Content.

• You understand that the various features that allow you to post User-Generated Content are provided as an accommodation to you. We make no guarantee as to the availability or accessibility of your User-Generated Content. Such Content may be stored on servers that are located outside the country in which you live.

• We are not responsible for the loss of your User-Generated Content, and you are solely responsible for backing up any and all of your User-Generated Content.

Privacy Policy

The ARPM Privacy Policy, which can be viewed further, is hereby incorporated and made part of these Terms of Service. By using the Services, you acknowledge, accept, and agree with all of the provisions of the ARPM Privacy Policy.

Proprietary Rights

The Service is owned and operated by ARPM and is protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws, including copyright laws. ARPM and its Content Providers and licensors reserve all of their intellectual property rights included in the Services. Using the Services does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in the Services or the content you access. You may not use content from the Services unless you obtain permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law.

You may not remove any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices from any Content you access through the Services, nor may you distribute, modify, transmit, lease, sublease, loan, sell, reuse, re-post, use, or create derivative works based on any Content from the Services for public or commercial purposes without the express written permission of the copyright holder. These limitations apply to all Content available on or through the Services. Any use that we do not permit could violate our or our Content Providers’ or licensors’ intellectual property rights.

Please see the Code of Conduct section of these Terms of Service for more specific prohibited activity.

User-Generated Content Rights

Because one purpose of the Website is to foster collaboration and an educational community, the Services may provide you with features that encourage you to post and share User-Generated Content. We do not claim any copyrights to the User-Generated Content created and posted by our Users. However, by uploading, posting, transmitting, or making User-Generated Content available on the Website, you grant us a nonexclusive, transferable, fully paid, irrevocable, perpetual, and worldwide license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, distribute, publicly display and perform, publish, transmit, reformat, excerpt, remove, and retain that User-Generated Content in any form of communication whether now existing or hereafter developed, without obtaining additional consent, without restriction or notification, and without compensating you in any way for any purpose ‒ commercial, advertising, or otherwise ‒ on or in connection with the Website.

You retain full ownership and any intellectual property rights associated with your User-Generated Content. Furthermore, you represent that you are not violating anyone else’s property rights by posting content, and you grant us the right to use your posted content to perform the services you’ve contracted with us to provide, including keeping archive copies. You may remove your User-Generated Content. However, the license will continue even if you remove your User-Generated Content from the Website. Furthermore, removing User-Generated Content from our Website does not mean all copies are removed, and you acknowledge that we may retain archived copies of this Content.

Trademarks

ARPM and its Service names, logos, designs, graphics, and marks, including but not limited to Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management, ARPM Bootcamp®, ARPM Certificate®, Certificate in Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management® are the trademarks of ARPM and/or its affiliates. You do not have any license or right, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, to use them without our written permission. Third-party trademarks, service marks, or trade names that appear on the Website are the property of their respective owners.

Copyright Complaints

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”) posted at http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. It is our policy to (1) block access to or remove material that we believe in good faith to be copyrighted material that has been illegally copied and distributed by any of our affiliates, Content Providers, licensors, or Users; and (2) remove and discontinue service to repeat infringers.

If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by ARPM infringe your copyright or that of another party, you may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed or that access to it be blocked. Please send all notices to ARPM’s Designated Agent to Receive Notification of Claimed Infringement:

Zorica Ivanovic
ARPM LLC
PO Box 21079
27 W 60th St.
New York, NY 10023
Phone: 929.260.4945
Email: zorica.ivanovic [AT] arpm.co
The notice should include all of following information:

• An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;

• A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed upon;

• A description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Website;

• Your name, address, telephone number, and email address;

• A statement by you that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;

• A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

We cannot take any action until we have collected all of the information specified above. Please note that this procedure is exclusively for notifying us that your copyrighted material has been infringed.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, then the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA (see Copyright.gov for details). All notices and counter-notices with respect to our Service should be sent to ARPM’s Designated Agent. If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, then we may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in ten business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the Content Provider, licensor, or User, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our discretion. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

A) THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.

B) YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

C) NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM ARPM OR THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, THE LIMITATIONS ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Assignment

These Terms of Service, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by ARPM without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof will be null and void.

Governing Law; Venue; Jurisdiction

By visiting or using the Website and/or the Services, you agree that the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Terms of Service and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and the Company or any of our affiliates. Unless resolved through arbitration (as noted below), all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service or the Services will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of New York County, New York and you and ARPM consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts and you hereby waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York.

Arbitration

Except to the extent invalid or otherwise prohibited by applicable law or public policy, for any claim arising or related to these Terms exceeding $10,000 (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief), the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute through final and binding arbitration in New York City, New York, before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its rules applicable to proceedings, and judgment upon any award the AAA may grant may be confirmed and entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration will be conducted in English before a single arbitrator. The arbitrator will be a practicing lawyer duly licensed to practice law in the state of New York. The parties to the arbitration will share equally in the costs and expenses of the AAA and of the arbitrator.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Service, together with any other amendments or documents referenced herein, constitutes the entire agreement between you and ARPM concerning the Services and supersedes all previous agreements, promises, proposals, representations, understandings, and negotiations, whether written or oral, between the parties respecting the subject matter hereof. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if any part of these Terms of Service is deemed invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the Terms of Service will continue in effect.

Non-Waiver

The failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE ONLY TO SUBSCRIPTIONS TO THE ARPM LAB AND OTHER SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES OFFERED ON THE WEBSITE (COLLECTIVELY “TITLES AND EACH INDIVIDUALLY A “TITLE”).

End-User License Agreement

When you license a Title through ARPM, you acquire a revocable, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sub licensable right to access the specified Title on the Website for a specified period of time (the “Subscription Period”) solely for your own non-commercial, personal end use and not for redistribution (the “Permitted Scope”).

Once the Subscription Period is over, your license to use and access the Title on the Website will expire, and your access may be terminated. In addition to accepting the terms of this End-User License Agreement, you must agree to the full ARPM Terms of Service, including without limitation all disclaimers of warranties and limitations of liability, to access the licensed Title on the Website. Additional terms, including without limitation, the length of the Subscription Period, may be included in the item description or receipt of purchase for the Title. Those additional terms are incorporated into this End User License Agreement, and you must agree to them to access and use the Title.

You are not permitted to sell, lease, license, rent, transfer, or in any manner distribute or permit others to use or access the Title. If you violate the terms of this End-User License Agreement, any specific license terms, or any part of the Terms of Service or your subscription is terminated early by you, then your license to access and use the Title may be terminated and you will not be entitled to a refund of any fee registration, licensing, or other fee paid by you to ARPM.

ARPM and its Content Providers retain all intellectual property rights in the licensed Title. Your intellectual property rights in your User-Generated Content are governed by the Terms of Service, this End User License Agreement and any independent agreements you may make with the Content Provider.

To the extent permitted by law, we may monitor your use of the Services in order to ensure your compliance with this End User License Agreement.

We strive to provide access to Titles on a continuous basis. However, you understand that access to the Title may be interrupted for reasons including, but not limited to: force majeure, acts of God, power outages, software issues, server downtime, programming errors, scheduled or unscheduled maintenance of the Website, and other related reasons. In the event of such an interruption of service, ARPM will take all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that access is restored within a reasonable time. For purposes of this End User License Agreement, the term “commercially reasonable” will mean reasonable efforts taken in good faith without an unduly burdensome use or expenditure of time, resources, personnel, or money.
The Subscription Period will begin at the time at which you are granted access to the Title. ARPM will grant access after account registration and receipt of full payment for the indicated Title.

ARPM Lab Specific License Terms

These specific license terms supplement the End-User License Agreement and apply to subscribers to the ARPM Lab. These specific terms prevail in the event of conflict with the End-User License Agreement or any other part of the Terms of Service.

You can modify the codes only while you are logged on to the ARPM Lab, but your changes will not be saved after you log out.
If you are a course instructor or professor for a university, you are permitted to copy and quote from the slides during classroom discussions provided, however, that you give ARPM proper attribution for same.
(collectively, the “Permitted Uses”).

What you CAN NOT do:

You cannot share your user ID or password and you cannot allow anyone but yourself to gain access to the ARPM Lab.
You cannot download, upload, copy, print, or save, even for your personal use, during or after the Subscription Period, any part of the theory, simulation clips, codes or exercises.

Except for the Permitted Uses or as otherwise expressly agreed by us in writing, you cannot use the ARPM Lab Content outside the Permitted Uses, before or after the Subscription Period.

ARPM’s Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine the highest-quality products and services with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our clients and partners. The Policy is designed to help you understand how we collect, use, and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to help you make informed decisions when using our site and our products and services. This statement will be continuously assessed against new technologies, business practices, and our customers’ needs. Personal information means data that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your name, address, telephone number, email address, as well as any other non-public information that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. This Privacy Policy describes the treatment of information provided or collected on all linked pages owned and operated by ARPM, LLC (“ARPM”) and the ARPM Service (“Services”). This Policy is referenced in, and is an integral part of, the Terms of Service governing the ARPM website (the “Website”). We collect two basic types of information: data that you provide (“User-Provided Data”) and data collected via technology (“Website Collected Information”). We may use both types of data to create Anonymous Data.

User-Provided Data
ARPM requires certain personal information to enable registration, including your name and email address. If you participate in a course of study through the Website, or if your course of study is subsidized in part or in full by a third party with whom you are affiliated (“Sponsoring Organization”), then this information might be provided on your behalf by that institution. Other data that you provide by populating profile information or by using Website features, including all chats, posts, images, or other user inputs, are not required for Service usage and therefore are considered to be disclosed publicly and provided voluntarily. In the event that you purchase a product or service through ARPM, including but not limited to licenses to electronic books, courses, or other content, we may collect transaction information such as your postal address or certain payment information. We use a third-party intermediary to manage credit card processing, and your credit card information is securely transmitted to that intermediary directly. Your full credit card number is never transmitted to or viewed by anyone at ARPM. However, we are given and may print a portion of your credit card information on your receipt to let you know which credit card you used to make a purchase. Except to process your credit card information for current or future purchases through ARPM, this intermediary processor is not permitted to store, retain, or use your billing information. If we ever terminate the agreement with our current vendor, then information may be transferred to another certified payment processor.

Website-Collected Data
We may also collect some information that you don’t type in yourself, through the use of cookies and other software technologies such as Linked-In. In the case of data obtained through Linked-In, we only collect your name, photo, headline, current positions, and primary email address. Cookies are a feature of web browser software that allows web servers to recognize the computer used to access a website. They are small pieces of data that are stored by a user’s web browser on the user’s hard drive. Cookies can remember what information a user accesses on one web page to simplify subsequent interactions with that website by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user’s transactions on related web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from web page to web page and to complete commercial transactions over the Internet. Like other Internet services, we automatically gather cookie data and store it in data stores each time you access the Website. The username that you use to log in to the system is stored in cookies on your computer. If you turn cookies off, you will not be able to use our Website. Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized. Our servers collect such information as your IP address, the type of computer operating system you’re using, which device and web browser you’re using, the frequency with which you visit parts of the Website, and other usage or technical data. This information is used to maintain and improve the internal operations of the Website.

Customized Learning Experience
In order to customize your learning experience within the Service, we may also collect information about your usage, such as assessments taken, videos watched, or progress made. This data may be stored and analyzed in order to best tailor the Service to your individual needs. If you participate in a course of study with an educational institution or a Sponsoring Organization through the Website, then this data may be shared with that organization to facilitate teaching and evaluation.

Anonymous Data
We may create Anonymous Data records from personal data, Website-Collected Data, and data obtained through services such as Google Analytics by excluding information that makes the data personally identifiable to you. We may use this Anonymous Data to improve the functionality of the Website. Furthermore, we reserve the right to aggregate and disclose Anonymous Data to third parties at our discretion.

How We Use Your Data
User feedback and usage trends provide valuable information about the quality of the Service. We reserve the right to review and monitor data on the Website for internal purposes, such as to troubleshoot issues, enforce our Terms of Service, or to improve the quality of the user experience. If you contact us with feedback or questions, to report a problem, or to request information from us, then we may use the information you provide to improve the Service and/or to respond to you. Any questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, feedback, or other information that you provide to ARPM in reference to the Service are non-confidential. We may use these submissions for any purpose, including for promotional purposes. We neither rent nor sell your personal information, though to provide the Services we may share some personal information with third parties who perform services on our behalf. These third parties are required not to use this information other than to provide services requested by us and are bound by confidentiality agreements with regard to any of your personal information. By using our Website, you expressly consent to the sharing of your personal information with our contractors and third-party service providers for the sole purpose of providing our products and services to you. We may send you information about your account (“Informational Emails”), such as password resets or notices of changes to the Service. We may also send you promotional information (“Promotional Emails”) about ARPM, such as announcements about new features or the availability of Website content. You may unsubscribe from Promotional Emails by following the opt-out instructions in those emails. If you opt out, you may still receive Informational Emails. We reserve the right, to the extent permissible by applicable laws, federal and/or state regulations, and/or valid court order, to disclose any information posted by any user as necessary to enforce our Terms of Service, to ensure the safety and security of our users, to protect our rights and those of our content providers, and to comply with the legal process, if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is required by law.

Retaining Your Data
We retain the personal information collected on this Website as long as necessary to provide the services, products, and information associated with their use or to fulfill the purposes for which they are needed, or as permitted by applicable law. All data is logged on our servers, which may be hosted by a third-party provider.

Securing Your Data
We utilize encryption/security software to safeguard the confidentiality of personal information we collect from unauthorized access or disclosure and accidental loss, alteration, or destruction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we cannot be held responsible for any unauthorized person illegally obtaining that information.

Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Website
We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our website, nor the information or content contained therein. Often links to other websites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the users of our website. Please remember that when you use a link to go from our website to another website, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link to our website, is subject to that website’s own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies before proceeding.

Messages And Other Communications
Communication with other members of the ARPM community is one of the Website’s features. Communications in the form of highlights, notes, comments, posts, chats, answers, votes, or other inputs that you share with other users are considered to be publicly disclosed to those users. Always use caution when giving out any personally identifying information about yourself through the act of discussions, chats, or other communication channels. To the extent permitted by applicable law, ARPM is not responsible for the personal information you choose to share within these messages or through the channels provided as a service of the Website.

Policy Changes
We reserve the right to interpret, add, delete, or modify all provisions contained in this Privacy Policy at any time without notice. Any changes to our Policy will be posted in this privacy statement. Your continued use of the Services following changes to the Privacy Policy will be deemed to constitute your acceptance of such changes. Please check the Website for changes.

Your Consent
By using our website, you consent to our collection and use of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. If we change our privacy policies and procedures, then we will post those changes on our website to keep you aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we may disclose it.
