Communications from CS
If you provide us with your e-mail address, we may send you e-mail from time to time. All e-mails from CS will be strictly 'opt-out' communications, and will include a URL or email address where you can unsubscribe from future mailings.
Confidentiality and Security
Your CS Account Information is password-protected.
In certain areas CS uses industry-standard SSL encryption to protect data transmissions. In some cases, at the request of our users, we provide an option to use SSL or not. The default is always to use SSL, but if you choose to not use SSL you do so at your own risk.
We take security seriously and make our best efforts to prevent compromise of your personal information. In the event of a serious security breach, we will alert our registered users.
