Protecting Personal Information
Privacy has always been important to LP. We have implemented appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure the integrity and security of your Personal Information and to prevent its disclosure outside of LP. Only those authorized by LP will be granted access to your Personal Information.
In addition to careful consideration about what information you share and who you share it with, we recommend as applicable that those providing personal information maintain good security habits. These include protecting and regularly changing your passwords, using computer virus protection, logging off when you finish using your computer, and considering the use of file or email encryption programs.
Information Retention
We keep your Personal Information only as long as necessary to provide you with our services and for legitimate and essential business purposes, such as maintaining the performance of our Website, making data-driven business decisions about new features and offerings, complying with our legal obligations, and resolving disputes.
Do Not Track Disclosure
Many web browsers include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting that signals your preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. However, there is currently no uniform standard for recognizing and implementing the DNT signals. As such, we do not monitor or respond to Do Not Track browser requests. If a standard is adopted that we must follow in the future, then we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

If you believe a child who is under the age of 18 has provided us with Personal Information, please contact us at the address listed below in “Requesting and Managing Your Information.”
