Security of Your Personal Information
We take reasonable steps to protect the security of your Personal Information. Please understand, however, that no data transmitted over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, please be thoughtful about what information you send through the Sites.
Do Not Track
Some web browsers incorporate a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal or similar feature that directly communicates to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity and behavior tracked. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected through the Sites. However, like many websites, our Sites are not currently designed to recognize a GPC signal from a web browser.
Third-Party Websites
Please be aware that you may be directed to third-party websites for services accessed through one of our Sites. Linked websites are not under our control and these websites may collect Personal Information about you. You are encouraged to review the privacy policy for each third-party website that may collect your Personal Information.
Children’s Privacy
The Sites are not intended for children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect the Personal Information of children under 16 years of age through the Sites without the authorization of a responsible adult (e.g., a parent or legal guardian).
Changes to this Privacy Policy
GMR may modify this Privacy Policy at any time in its discretion to reflect, for example, changes to our practices or for other legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. If we make any material changes to the ways in which we process your Personal Information, then we will take reasonable efforts to notify you of these changes. The updated Privacy Policy will supersede all previous versions. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of the updated Privacy Policy will indicate your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.

With any request, we may take steps to verify your identity before processing your request. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the individual about whom we collected Personal Information. We will only use the Personal Information provided in the verification process to verify your identity or authority to make a request and to track and document your requests and our responses, unless you initially provided the information for another purpose. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request. When we verify your agent’s request, we may verify your identity and request a signed document from your agent that authorizes your agent to make the request on your behalf. To protect your Personal Information, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that you have authorized them to act on your behalf.
