Log Files, Usage Data and IP Addresses
Log files are web server files (containing information such as domain name or IP address, URL, http response code, or the date and duration of your visit) that are automatically created when an Internet user visits a website. An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet. When you visit our website, our servers log your IP address.

We also reserve the right to transfer personal information about you in the event we sell, transfer or merge all or a portion of the business or assets.
