1. Introduction

FFI Solutions (“FFIS,” “we,” “us” or “our”) owns and operates ffisolutions.com, including all information and content therewith, including any related sites, and provides services related to the website to host and operate the applicable software (collectively, the “Site”).

Do-Not-Track Mechanisms. Your browser may deliver a “Do-Not-Track (‘DNT’) signal” to this Site.
