We do not automatically gather any personal information from you, such as your name, phone number, e-mail, or address.

In that case, we only collect the information we need to provide our services and report to our funder.
Any personal information you give us is protected under applicable privacy law. We will let you know, at the point of collection, that we are collecting your personal information, what we will use it for, and that you have the right to access the information.
While registration is not required to use this website, it is required to access the members-only area and its tools and discussion forums.
