safeguards that comply with federal regulations to protect personal information

privacy of user information. In this connection, we protect your account
information by placing it on the secure portion of our website, using firewalls
and other security technology to protect our network and systems from external
attacks, and requiring you to enter a unique user name and password to access
your profile or account information online. Also, our servers have been enabled
with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to prevent unauthorized parties from
viewing the nonpublic personal information that you provide or access during a
secure session (look for the padlock icon on your browser). In addition, Knight
BondPoint limits access to personal information about you to employees and
third-party service providers who we believe reasonably need to come into
contact with that information to provide services to you or in order to do
their jobs. We conduct periodic audits of our business practices and
procedures, which may examine confidentiality standards and information access
in order to protect your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee
that any methods will be 100% effective at stopping unauthorized access, and
you assume such risk when using our Site.
