This statement is included to inform you solely about the information that could be collected online as a result of visiting the FMP web site itself and not as a result of following a link from the FMP web site to any other web site or online service.

FMP recognizes the importance of privacy to our web site visitors. This Privacy Statement is included to inform you as to what information is obtained by FMP online, how FMP uses this information, and what steps are being taken to ensure the security of information obtained by FMP.
