We will respond to your request within a commercially reasonable timeframe.

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates.  Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they even are aware of them.  Because there currently is no industry standard concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.  If and when a final standard is established and accepted, we will reassess how to respond to these signals.

11. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE.

We may update this Privacy Notice, including any supplemental privacy disclosures, to reflect changes to its information practices.
