• User-Supplied Information: When you sign up for a service, such as a legal expert, we may ask you for your name, e-mail address, phone number, and some other personal contact information. The more accurate the information you volunteer, the better we are able to customize your expertinfo.com experience. We also collect email addresses for our mailing list.
• Server Log Information: When you visit an Internet Web site, you disclose certain information about yourself, such as your Internet [Protocol] (IP) address, the time of your visit, and the referring location (e.g., the Site or page that offered a link to a expertinfo.com).

If you prefer, you can reset your browser either to notify you when you receive a cookie, or to refuse to accept cookies. You should understand that certain areas of many sites may not function properly if you set your browser to not accept cookies or if you reject a cookie.

We use information in different ways, depending on the type of information.

User-supplied information:
This information is used for purposes such as personalization, user verification, and to contact you.

Any user statistics that we may provide to prospective advertisers or partners regarding your expertinfo.com usage are provided in the aggregate only and do not include any personally identifiable information about any individual user.

Your access to some services and content is password protected. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. A representative will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. You should not disclose your user name and password to others. You may also wish to close your browser window when you have finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you are using a computer that is used by someone other than yourself.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

When you are at the expertinfo.com site and asked for personal information, you share that information with Pro/Consul, Inc.® alone, unless the service is offered in conjunction with another party. If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer of data by not using that particular service. If you choose to share your data with a provider of a co-branded service, you should understand that those providers may have separate privacy and data collection practices. Each provider should provide, and will upon request, more information regarding its privacy and/or use policies.
