We automatically track and collect the following information when you visit our Site, including your: (i) IP address; (ii) domain server; (iii) type of computer; and (iv) type of web browser (collectively "Traffic Data"). Traffic Data is anonymous information that does not personally identify you but is helpful to improve your experience on the Site and to track site usage. We may also use “cookies” to customize content specific to your interests, to ensure that you do not see the same promotional content repeatedly and to store your password (if one is required to be issued) so you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit the Site.

In order for you to access certain specialized services and/or to purchase products offered at the Site, we may require you to provide us with information that personally identifies you ("Personal Information").

If you communicate with us by Email, or complete survey forms online, any information you provide may be collected as Personal Information.
   
   c. Job Search. Through our Site we provide access to employment listings under the title “Current Openings.” When you submit a resume through Current Openings, we will treat your resume with the same degree of confidentiality as if you had submitted it to us via regular mail. If you have any questions about this process, please contact: Linda Evans at (330) 758-8613.
   
   
2. Uses of Information Collected.
   We may use Contact Data to send you information about HBK or our products or services, or promotional material, or to contact you when necessary.

3. User Choice Regarding Collection, Use and Distribution of Personal Information.
   You may choose not to provide us with any Personal Information. In that case you can still access and use much of the Site; however you will not be able to access and use portions of the Site that require your Personal Information. If you do not wish to receive information and promotional material from us or from some of our partners, you may select the appropriate "opt out" option each time we ask you for Personal Information.
