INFORMATION SECURITY


LERETA attempts to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of your personal information. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. Our servers are protected by reasonable physical, technical, and administrative security measures. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

CUSTOMER PORTAL


To protect the security of your information, we may require you to authenticate your identity (i.e., prove that you are who you say you are) to conduct certain transactions via the Services. Use of unique login information may be required to access certain portions of the Services. You acknowledge that your login information is unique, and must be kept private and confidential to protect the security of your account. You agree not to give or make available your login information to any unauthorized individual. If you believe your login information has been compromised, lost or stolen, someone without authorization has attempted to use your account, or your account has been accessed by someone without authorization, you must notify us immediately (using the contact information below). If you lose or forget your login information, contact us immediately. If you fail to notify us, you may be liable for all unauthorized activity on your account.

THIRD PARTY LINKS


The Services may display links to third-party websites. By including a link to third-party websites, LERETA does not endorse or recommend any products or services offered or information contained at the third-party websites. LERETA disclaims liability for any privacy practices of the third-party websites linked on the Services, which may have a privacy policy different from that of LERETA. If you decide to visit a third-party website via a link displayed on the Services, you do so at your risk.

TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES


We may also collect information during your visit to the Services through our online tracking technologies, which may include cookies, web beacons, digital fingerprints, embedded Web links, and other information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain traffic information that your browser automatically sends, such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived. They may also collect information about your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, click stream behavior (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with the Services or “powered by” websites) and product information. For example, some pages made available via the Services use cookies so that LERETA can better serve you when you return to the Services.

In addition to session based cookies (i.e., cookies that stored information in a temporary memory location that is deleted when you end your session or close your web browser), LERETA may utilize persistent cookies for analytics purposes. These persistent cookies, which may be our own first-party cookies or third-party cookies of our service providers, help us better analyze and customize our users experience and the performance of the Services.. These third parties may collect personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use the Services. You have the right to opt out of behavioral and interest based marketing. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. In addition to opting out of cookies directly through your browser, you can view and opt out of cookies that are currently on your browser by visiting the following websites: http://www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices. However, please note that disabling cookies may prevent you from taking advantage of certain features on the Services.
Even if you disable tracking, keep in mind that you may still receive interest-based advertising from third parties with whom your information had been previously disclosed or advertising from third parties that is not based on your interests and preferences.
The Services do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals.

The Services are not intended for use by children or minors. We do not knowingly solicit information from children under 13 years, and we do not knowingly market to children.
