        operates Tru-Scope.com and may operate other websites. It
        is Tru-Scope's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect
        while operating our websites.
    Website Visitors
    Like most website operators, Tru-Scope Building Consultants collects non-personally-identifying information 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. Tru-Scope's purpose in
        collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand
        how Tru-Scope's visitors use its website. From time to
        time, Tru-Scope Building Consultants may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by
        publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
    Tru-Scope Building Consultants also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol
        (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on Tru-Scope.com        blogs/sites. Tru-Scope Building Consultants only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same
        circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that
        commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site
        where the comment was left.
    Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
    Certain visitors to Tru-Scope's websites choose to interact
        with Tru-Scope Building Consultants in ways that require Tru-Scope Building Consultants to gather
        personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Tru-Scope Building Consultants gathers
        depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at Tru-Scope.com to provide a
        username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Tru-Scope Building Consultants are asked to
        provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to
        process those transactions. In each case, Tru-Scope Building Consultants collects such information only insofar as
        is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with
		Tru-Scope Building Consultants. Tru-Scope Building Consultants does not disclose personally-identifying information
        other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with
