We may aggregate overall Site statistics measuring user

state of privacy on the web, such as the number of complaints filed in a given

Certain Legal Disclosures
We may need to disclose user information in certain
exceptional circumstances. This may be needed to protect against illegal hackers, to
protect our legal rights or to address actual or threatened illegal or harmful conduct.
Disclosure may also be required by legal process, such as a search warrant, subpoena or
court order.

We may offer secure pages to collect certain information on
our order form. We also use administrative, physical and technical precautions to help
protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of personal information stored on our
system. We host the Site at a commercial-grade data center that employs extensive security
practices. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures
implemented by our Site reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate
to the type of data involved.
How Long Do We Retain User Data?
Currently, we plan to retain user data while an account is
active and for at least three years afterward. We may alter this practice according to
legal and business requirements. For example, we may lengthen the retention period for
some data if needed to comply with law or voluntary codes of conduct. Unless otherwise
prohibited, we may shorten the retention period for some types of data if needed to free
up storage space.
Management of User Information:
You can access and manage your account information using the
Account Manager feature at the Main Menu. Certain information, such as name or address,
can be updated or corrected. Some information contained in public Registry Statements is
presented in read-only format that cannot be modified by users.
We will make a good faith effort to implement your data
management requests according to our rules. Note: we have greater control over data
currently stored on the system than for archived data. Once data is archived and removed
from the system, it may not be feasible to modify or remove data for specific individuals.
In those cases, our general data retention policy applies.
