Website Browsing
While you browse our website and request pages from our server, we do not gather personally identifiable information from your device. Therefore, unless voluntarily provided by you, we remain unaware of your name, email, or other personal data.

We collect this data to ensure optimal website functionality and understand user behaviors to enhance content and functionality.
Data Collection
We only collect personally identifiable information from you when necessary to facilitate a transaction or deliver a service. In such instances, we request you to provide necessary information like name, address, phone number, email, and demographic information voluntarily. We may use this data to inform you of future offers or promotions, unless you choose to opt-out. We gather data from various sources, including communications with you, transactions involving us or our affiliates, third-party agencies, and public records. We may also share your data with third parties for promotional purposes, but you can opt-out of this.
Usage of Personally Identifiable Information
The Company uses the collected personally identifiable information for executing consumer-requested transactions, managing and enhancing our website and services, customizing content, and sharing data with affiliated and non-affiliated entities. This data may also be used for auditing, research, analysis, and showing usage patterns.
Your Choices/Opt-out
We respect your privacy and provide you choices related to your data collection. You can opt-out of using your personally identifiable information for certain purposes, decline to provide personal data, or refuse browser cookies, though this may affect some of our functionalities or services.
If you wish to discontinue receiving newsletters or promotional communications, you can opt-out using the instructions provided in every communication or by contacting us. By providing your personal information, you consent to its collection, usage, and disclosure as stated in our privacy policy, but you can withdraw this consent at any time by following our Choice/Opt-Out procedures.
