You use the Service at your own risk. We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures designed to protect Information both online and offline from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no Internet or e-mail transmission is ever fully secure or error-free. In particular, e-mail sent to or from us may not be secure. Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what information you send to us via the Service or e-mail. Please keep this in mind when disclosing any Information to us via the Internet. In addition, we are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Service, or third-party websites.
