Please read below for more information on the cookies we use, the purposes for which we use them, and how to reject cookies.
How we deploy “cookies”
Cookies are small packets of information stored by your web browser when you visit certain websites, including our website. Cookies are generally used by websites to improve your user experience by enabling that website to ‘remember’ you, either strictly for the duration of your visit (using a “Session” cookie which is erased when you close your browser) or for repeat visits (using a “Permanent” cookie).
How to reject cookies
Our Do-Not-Track Policy: If you don’t want to receive cookies, you can alter your browser settings. The procedure for doing so varies from one browser application to another. If you wish to reject cookies from our site, but wish to accept those from other sites, you may choose the option in your browser settings to receive a notice before a cookie is stored on your device. If you block or reject cookies, not all of the tracking described here will stop. Please consult the “Help” section of your browser for more information.
To find out more or to opt out of having your online behavior collected for advertising purposes, please consult the following: www.youronlinechoices.com (for EU users) or http://optout.aboutads.info/ (for U.S. users). Choices you make are device-specific and browser-specific. By disabling cookies, you may be prevented from accessing some features of our site or certain content or functionality may not be available.
Information sharing
We use a small number of third parties to perform business functions on our behalf, such as sending our newsletters and hosting our website. We will disclose personal data to these vendors and service providers to enable them to provide their services.
Where required or permitted by law, personal data may be provided to others, such as regulator and law enforcement agencies, for example in response to a court order or a subpoena, or in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities or to protect us, our websites, customers, employees, and business partners from fraud or other malicious activity, and as otherwise required by law.
We do not sell or rent any personal data about you to any third party.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
What rights you have over your data
If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us by emailing [email protected]. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Your California Privacy Rights

To make such a request, please send an email to [email protected].

This Privacy Notice is limited to the personal data collected by us. We do provide links within this site to other websites, including social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. If you follow these links, your use of these sites will be governed by their applicable user and privacy notices since their data practices fall outside the scope of this Privacy Notice.
