3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our site.

4. Data Security
We are committed to safeguarding your personal information. We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal data:

• Access Control: Access to customer data is restricted to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information to perform specific tasks.

• Data Storage: Your information is stored on secure servers behind firewalls. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security due to the inherent nature of the internet.
