The website’s information gathering and usage practices are:

- The type of browser and operating system you used, the date and time you visited this site, the web pages or services you accessed at this site, the website you visited prior to coming to this website, the website you visit as you leave this website and any forms, PDFs you downloaded;
- The pages that were visited and the amount of time spent at the website; and
- The size of the content, in bytes, of any file or document sent to the user’s computer.

INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY YOU WHEN YOU VISIT THIS WEBSITE
You may communicate with us during your visit to this website by sending an e-mail or initiating a transaction such as a survey, registration, information request form or order form. All information in your communication, whether solicited or unsolicited, is deemed to be voluntarily supplied by you. This includes your e-mail address as well as the text and digital data in your communication.
We collect and disclose this information for any purpose reasonably ascertainable from the nature and terms of the communication, such as responding to you; forwarding it to another entity for appropriate action; improving this website and providing goods, services, and information. We may also use this information to send you promotional information regarding TSWR and its business partners. We will not, however, sell or otherwise disclose your e-mail address or personal information for commercial purposes without your knowledge or consent.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children or create profiles of children through this website. Users are cautioned, however, that the collection of personal information submitted in an e-mail or through an online transaction will be treated as though it was submitted by an adult, and may, unless exempted from access by Federal or State law, be subject to public access. We strongly encourage parents and teachers to be involved in children’s Internet activities and to provide guidance whenever children are asked to provide personal information online.
INFORMATION AND CHOICE
You can avoid the collection of personal information by us by not sending us e-mail, using our online forms and by not initiating online transactions with us. While doing so may limit your ability to receive some services or products through this website, it will not prevent you from taking advantage of other features such as browsing through most publicly available information.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH THIS WEBSITE
The collection and disclosure of information obtained through this website is subject to the Internet Security and Privacy Act, the Freedom of Information Law and the Personal Privacy Protection Law. As stated previously, we collect and disclose personal information only upon your consent, which we deem to occur, for example, when you send us an e-mail or initiate an online transaction. Regardless of your consent, we may collect or disclose personal information if: (1) necessary to perform our statutory duties or necessary for us to operate a program authorized by law, or authorized by state or federal statute or regulation; (2) done pursuant to a court order or by law; (3) for the purpose of validating the identity of the user; or (4) the information is to be used solely for statistical purposes and is in a form that cannot be used to identify any particular person. We may also disclose personal information to federal or state law enforcement authorities to enforce our rights against unauthorized access to our IT assets or against other inappropriate use of this website.

You may submit a request to determine whether personal information pertaining to you has been collected through this website.
