“Do Not Call” Policy

2012-02-13T16:38:26Z

Policy last updated: 11/30/09
Policy version # : 1

If a consumer requests a copy of our "Do Not Call" policy, we will send a copy via U.S. mail.

Consumers may request, by telephone or in writing, that our company stop calling them and place their name on a "Do Not Call" list. Although we may ask for your name, address and telephone number, we will accept your request even if you only provide your telephone number. You have a right to have calls stopped and to be put on our "Do Not Call" list even if you are still a customer.

When we receive your request, your telephone number is added to our "Do Not Call" list within 1 business days. In some cases it may take up to 3 business days for your telephone number to be removed from other company wide calling lists. Your request will stay on our list for at least 5 years. If you move, change your telephone number, or add an additional telephone number, you must provide us with the new telephone number in order for us to prevent calls to that number. We will not share the information you provide with anyone except affiliated companies or subsidiaries without your prior written permission.

We may perform telemarketing services for other companies. In this case, we will also forward our updated "Do Not Call" list(s) to these companies on a periodic basis, unless the client requests otherwise or refuses to accept these updates from us.

All employees that engage in outbound telephone solicitation are trained in this policy and made aware of these procedures before they are allowed to place calls to consumers. Managers, supervisors, or trainers review the policy with these employees periodically.

If the consumer notifies us that they have received a telephone call from us after they have already requested to be placed on our "Do Not Call" list, we will apologize for the intrusion and have a manager or supervisor investigate. The manager or supervisor will also personally confirm that the telephone number is on the "Do Not Call" list. Upon request, we will mail the consumer a confirmation that their telephone number is on the list.

The methods and procedures in this "Do Not Call" policy are reviewed by Compliance Manager periodically.

RSS, Feeds and Atom can sound confusing but the idea is very simple: make it easy to follow updates from a web site. There are two parts to using an RSS feed:

1. RSS Readers are the main tool you'll need in order to keep up with RSS Feeds. They turn the technical mumbo jumbo of a feed into a format you can read and follow. There are plenty of RSS Readers to choose from and we gladly recommend Google Reader or Bloglines.

2. RSS Feeds themselves are simply a file format that makes it easy for Feed Readers to consume. They are commonly called Feeds, RSS, RSS 2.0, Atom, Syndication, etc. They are also often associated with the orange icon feature to the top left on this page. The size and shape my vary but it's generally something like that. Wherever you see this image or terms there is usually a Feed you can follow.

Here are our feeds in the two most popular formats:

RSS 2.0
Atom

You only need to subscribe to one as they both contain the same data, the format is just a matter of preference. So go get a feed reader and start keeping up with updates even faster!
