The Website and the content made available through this site are for educational and informational purposes only.

SRDC makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, as to the Website’s operation or the information, content or materials included on the Website; all of which are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the full extent permissible by applicable law, SRDC hereby disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for any particular purpose.

The site may contain copyrighted material owned by a third party, the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner. Notwithstanding a copyright owner’s rights under the Copyright Act, Section 107 of the Copyright Act allows limited use of copyrighted material without requiring permission from the rights holders, for purposes such as education, criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. These so-called “fair uses” are permitted even if the use of the work would otherwise be infringing.

If you wish to use or submit copyrighted material published on this site for your own purposes that go beyond fair use, you must obtain permission from the copyright owner.

Privacy Policy

SRDC is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to its Website. This statement is designed to inform you about our privacy principles and policy regarding collected data. 

Personally Identifiable Information

SRDC does not require you to register or furnish any personal information as a condition of using the Website. We collect personally identifiable information only if you voluntarily provide it to us. Personally identifiable information provided by a visitor (name, email or home address, etc.) will not be disclosed to anyone unless the visitor expressly permits SRDC to do so.

SRDC logs Internet protocol (IP) addresses to conduct system administration, report aggregate information, and conduct site analysis. An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. All computer identification on the Internet is conducted with IP addresses, which allow computers and servers to recognize and communicate with each other. If a visitor requests pages from SRDC, SRDC's servers enter the visitor's IP address into a log. To maintain visitor anonymity, SRDC does not associate IP addresses with records containing personal information unless it is necessary to identify a visitor who refuses to comply with the terms of service or to identify visitors who threaten this service, site, customers, or others.

Cookies

A cookie is a unique number assigned to your computer and stored on a cookie file on your computer for record-keeping purposes. The Website uses cookies only to enhance your web browsing experience.  The cookies do not contain personal information and are not used to store personal information about you, track your movements to other sites, or sell information about you to others.

SRDC may provide links to various third-party websites; however, SRDC exercises no control over linked sites, each of which maintains independent privacy and data collection policies and procedures. If you visit an external link, you should consult that website’s privacy policy before providing any personally identifying information. Inclusion of links from other websites does not imply endorsement by SRDC. Specific questions regarding information contained within those links should be directed to the appropriate organization and not to SRDC. SRDC shall make only reasonable efforts to independently verify, and does not exert editorial control over, information on pages outside of the Website. SRDC does not endorse any products, vendors, consultants, or documentation referenced in the Website. Any mention of vendors, products, or services is for informational purposes only.
