Information Gathering

We collect information, including some personal data, from you via our website when you voluntarily provide it to us in order to receive requested information and/or services.

We typically receive minimal personal data from individuals who contact us via our website for the above purposes, including name and contact information, such as email address, address, and phone number.

However, you can voluntarily provide other types of personal data to us during your interactions with us. Should you choose to provide us with any personal data, we will use such information only as described in this Privacy Notice. If you submit personal data relating to other people to us, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use that personal data in accordance with this Privacy Notice.
