with a mechanism to delete/deactivate Personally

of deletions, it may be impossible
to delete
a Visitor's entry without retaining
some
residual information. An individual
who requests
to have Personally Identifiable Information
deactivated will have this information
functionally
deleted, and we will not sell, transfer,
or use Personally Identifiable Information
relating to that individual in any
way moving
forward.

policy by posting such changes on the Site.
However, if we are changing our privacy policy
in a manner that might cause disclosure of

a Visitor or Authorized Customer has previously
requested not be disclosed, we will contact
such Visitor or Authorized Customer to allow
such Visitor or Authorized Customer to prevent
such disclosure.
