How we collect personal information

Your personal information is collected when you browse our website. Use of our website may result in the collection of technical information such as your computer’s IP address, operating system, browser name/version, the referring web page, requested page, date/time, and sometimes a “cookie” (which can be disabled using your browser preferences).

This helps us analyze data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.
​
Your personal information is collected when you subscribe to our newsletter or send us your feedback. From time to time, we may invite you to provide us with information for specific purposes.
