Emails At any time, you can log in to your account with PPAB and change and edit your profile and how and which emails you receive from us. To safeguard your information, we advise you choose a secure password and update it regularly. If we ever use a third-party mail platform to communicate with you it will be sent from our main PPAB email address, so you can easily identify the sender and you will have the option to immediately unsubscribe and be requested to confirm your opt-in preference. Website Like most website operators PPAB collects non-personally-identifying information (“NPII”) of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. The purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how our site visitors use the website, where they are referred from and how long they stay on the site.

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.
