Email uses the internet which is an open system and we cannot guarantee that email messages you send to us, or we send to you, are secure, complete, or free from viruses or that an email will not be lost, intercepted, destroyed, delayed, or prevented from reaching us.

We are not responsible for any loss or damage arising in any way from the receipt, use, storage, or transmission of our emails. If we forward an email or reply to a previous email, the content of such email may include information created by someone other than us or our employees/agents and we assume no liability whatsoever for such information. WE DISCLAIM ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT OUR EMAILS ARE VIRUS FREE AND/OR ERROR FREE. Any use of email to introduce any virus, malicious or disabling code, or to otherwise obstruct any of our emails, other communication, or computer systems is prohibited and in violation of the law. Violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
