Do Not Track. “Do Not Track” is a privacy preference that you can set in your Internet search browser that sends a signal to a website that you do not want the website operator to track certain browsing information about you. However, because our Site is not configured to detect Do Not Track signals from a user’s computer, we are unable to respond to Do Not Track requests.

We will share your Personal Information with some of our affiliates, and business partners and service providers who perform services for us, including in the course of providing services for you.

Third Party Links and Third Party Integrations
The Site may contain links to other websites maintained by third parties over whom we have no control. When you click on one of those links, you are accessing a website that is not owned, operated, or controlled by us, and your visits to those websites are not covered by this Privacy Policy. The operator of such website may have its own privacy policy (which we encourage you to read carefully), and that policy will govern the collection and use of your data on that website. We do not share your Personal Information with these parties.
We may also provide links to third-party integrations. Third-party integrations are websites or platforms that synchronize with our Site to provide you with additional functionality, chatbots, tools, or services such as accepting job applications, or sending newsletters.
You agree we are not responsible for the availability of third-party sites, resources, or integrations and do not endorse and are not responsible or liable for any content, advertising, goods, services or other materials on, available through, or provided by such sites, resources, or integrations.

Embedded content may place third-party cookies on your device that track your online activity to enhance your experience or assess the success of their application. We have no direct control over the information these cookies collect and you should refer to their website privacy policy for additional information.
The Site uses social media plugins (e.g., Facebook) to enable you to easily share information with others. When you visit our Site, the operator of the social plugin can place a cookie on your computer, enabling that operator to recognize individuals who have previously visited our Site. If you are logged into the social media website (e.g., Facebook) while browsing our Site, the social plugins allow that social media website to share data about your activities on our Site with other users of their social media website. For example, Facebook Social Plugins allow Facebook to show your Likes and comments on our pages to your Facebook friends. Facebook Social Plugins also allow you to see your friends’ Facebook activity on our website. We do not control any of the content from the social media plugins. For more information about social plugins from other media websites, you should refer to those sites’ privacy and data/information sharing statements/policies.

Data Security
Tighe, Kress & Orr P.C. will take reasonable precautions to protect Personal Information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, these measures, standing alone, are not sufficient to ensure the security of your Personal Information.
