Cookies, by themselves, are not able to extract any personal information from you. Unless you specifically tell us, we will not know who you are even though we may assign your computer a cookie. You can control the creation of cookies through the “Help” section of your web browser. However, you may not be able to use certain functions and features of the Website if you disable cookies.

ULS may use remarketing or similar audiences to advertise online. We use third-party vendors, including Google, to show ads on sites across the Internet. As part of this advertising, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your past visits to our website. Visitors can opt out of Google's use of cookies by visiting Google's Ad Settings.
International Data Transfers
ULS is based in the U.S. We process and store data about you on servers located in the U.S. Your personal data may therefore be transferred to a country different from your country of residence, and be subject to privacy laws that are different from those in your country of residence. When we transfer personal information internationally, we utilize recognized safeguards, like standard contractual clauses for the EU residents’ personal information, that provide a consistent level of protection to your information regardless of the country in which we process it.
Links to Other Sites
We may provide links to other websites for your convenience and information. Any personal information you provide on the linked websites is provided directly to that third party, not ULS. These websites may have their own privacy statements in place, which we recommend you review if you visit any linked web sites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of linked sites.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as is necessary for the purpose(s) for which we originally collected it or for other legitimate business purposes, including to meet our legal, regulatory, or other compliance obligations.
Your Choices
If at any time you do not want to receive electronic communication from us, you have the right to remove yourself from our mailing list by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of all emails. If you elect not to receive marketing communications, this will not affect our ability to send you service and account related emails, or other non-promotional emails, or to use your personal information as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
