Your privacy is important to us and we take measures to protect your privacy but you too must safeguard your accounts from unauthorized access and unauthorized use of your information. To protect against misuse of personal information and unauthorized transactions, you must keep your user ID and password confidential and not disclose them to anyone else. You should not authorize anyone to access your account using your user ID and password. You assume the risk for all activities on your account and information accessed by you or anyone to whom you have provided your user ID and password. Never tell anyone your password, and always log out of your user User ID and close your browser window when you have finished working to ensure that no one else can access your information. This is especially important if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a library or other public place. We are not responsible for the actions or omissions of third parties that have accessed your information using your user ID and password. The company will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or unsolicited email.
