And those who use our services. To this end, we have systems for securely managing your Personal Information. We created this Privacy Policy to help you understand the types of information we collect, how we use and disclose it, your options related to it, and our responsibilities in safeguarding it.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into our Terms of Use. All capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meaning outlined in the Terms of Use.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Service and to the collection of your Personal Information from offline sources as described in this Privacy Policy.
