The security of your personal information is important to
us. When you enter sensitive information such as a credit card number, we
encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). You can

We follow generally accepted industry standards to
protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission
and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or
method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we
strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal
information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Business Transitions
In the event SNOC goes through a business transition,
such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a
portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely
be among the assets transferred. You will be notified via e-mail or
prominent notice on our websites of any such change in ownership.
Changes in this Privacy Statement

those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we
deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how
we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at
any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to
this policy, we will notify you here, by e-mail, or by means of a notice on
