SECURITY 

We safeguard the security of the information you provide to us or that we collect with physical, electronic, and managerial measures.

To make purchases from any of our Sites, you must use an SSL-enabled browser such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox.   

The safety and security of your information also depends on you.  Please use caution when you are on the Internet to protect your personal data. Change your passwords regularly, do not share passwords, and use a combination of letters, numbers and special characters for your passwords. Always make sure you use a secure browser when on the Internet.

You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password or any other breach of security.  

We have the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time in our sole discretion if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms or we believe such action is appropriate to ensure the security of the Sites or your account, or to address any suspected security incidents or breaches.
