This Web site may contain links to other sites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the Sunburst Web site. Sunburst does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from Sunburst practices. Sunburst is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other Web sites outside the Sunburst companies. The personal data you choose to provide or that is collected by those third parties is not covered by this Privacy Statement. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your personal data.

Sunburst may make message boards, news groups, and/or public forums available to users on its Web sites. Any information that you disclose in these areas becomes public information that may be accessed by third parties; therefore, you should use caution before deciding to disclose any personal data in these forums.
