However, due to the open nature of the Internet we cannot guarantee that communication between you and us, and between us and you, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties.

By using the Services or providing Personal Information, you agree to receive electronic communications regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of the Services.
