Security Measures
We want to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information on our web site, your information is protected online and off-line. When you complete our registration form, we send you a welcoming email to verify your password and username. While you are on a secure page, the lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked. While we use encryption software to protect sensitive information online, we also use our best efforts to protect your information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information, is restricted in our offices. Employees are granted access to personally identifiable information only on a "need-to-know" basis to perform their jobs. The servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. Although complete security cannot be guaranteed, LEAPdirect makes good faith efforts to store information in a secure operating environment. If you have any questions about the security for our web site, please email us at info@leapdirect.com.

You have the opportunity to "opt-out" of having your information used for purposes not directly related to our site at the point where we ask you for the information. For example, our registration form has a box you can check or uncheck giving us your preference to receive future promotional emails or marketing material.
If you no longer wish to receive promotional material from our partners, you may opt-out by responding to the "unsubscribe" email link or by emailing us at info@leapdirect.com.
