DO YOU USE COOKIES OR OTHER ONLINE TECHNOLOGIES TO COLLECT INFORMATION ABOUT ME?
When you browse or visit one of our Sites, we may collect and store certain information about computers that visit our Site through the use of several technologies, including "cookies." A cookie is a small file that a web site can send to your browser, which may be stored on your system. Some pages of this web-site use cookies or other technologies to better serve you when you return to the web-site. You may set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, allowing you to decide whether or not to accept it. Your browser may also be set to turn off cookies. If you do so, some areas of the Site may not function properly.
We collect other information that is not itself personally identifiable, such as referring URL addresses, time spent in certain areas of the Site, and origination of the user. This anonymous information is sometimes known as "clickstream data." PDP may use this data to analyze trends and statistics to help us provide better customer service. When you visit this Site, we also collect information about the type of web-site browser you use, as well as the IP address that has been assigned to you. Although it is possible to combine clickstream data with information that would enable us to identify a Site visitor, it is not our practice to do so.
When we collect personal information from you in connection with a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in an anonymous format and combine it with other anonymous data such as clickstream data. This information is used and analyzed only to help us understand trends and patterns.
THIRD PARTY LINKED WEB-SITES

WHAT STEPS DO YOU TAKE TO PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT ME?
The security of your personal information is important to PDP. When you enter personal information on our registration or update forms, we encrypt the information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of personal information, we have established physical, electronic, technical and administrative procedures to limit who has access to personal information. We use a variety of methods to safeguard the personal information that we collect and maintain.
Companies that provide online services on our behalf are required by contract to protect customer information, and are only allowed to use the information for the purpose of providing the services we have contracted with them to provide.
No web-site is completely secure from unauthorized intrusions and attacks. Although we use appropriate security measures to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee that your personal information will never be accessed without proper authorization.

Any claim related to the Site or this privacy policy shall be brought in a federal or state court in Maryland within one year after the claim arises. You agree that no such claim may be brought as a class action. Users of the web-site consent to the jurisdiction and venue of such court as the most convenient and appropriate for the resolution of any disputes arising out of this privacy policy.
