This Privacy Policy will be continuously assessed against new technologies, business practices and our customers’ needs and legal developments, and may be revised accordingly.

Aggregate Information
Our web server may automatically collect the IP address, but not the email address, of all visitors to our Site. We also track the pages within our Site that you view, the date and time you view those pages and the IP address of the web site you used to link directly to our Site.

We use this aggregate information to help us evaluate visitor traffic patterns and improve our Site by making it more responsive to the needs of visitors. This information does not identify you personally.

This information is only obtained if you supply it voluntarily, usually through our Contact Us form, employment application, by registering on the Email List Sign Up page through our site, by registering as a user on our Site, or by making purchases using the Site. Employment application information is collected on a secure server and immediately sent to our HR department.
