The LP Web site use “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize LP pages, or register with LP site or services, a cookie helps LP to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same LP Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the LP features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the LP services or Web sites you visit.

LP secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. LP secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

We may process information collected through our service(s) on behalf of our clients, such processing and use shall be limited to the purpose of providing the services for which clients have engaged LP.

We may transfer personal information to companies that help us provide our services. Transfers to subsequent third parties are covered by the service agreements with our clients.

An individual who seeks access, or who seeks to correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data should direct their query to LP’s applicable client. If requested to remove data we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
