system. BuzzTrack is a secured application that can only be accessed by entering

After the initial email contact, there may be several points of communication
between you and the ISG by either telephone or email. At any point in the
relationship you have the option of indicating by either telephone or email that
you no longer wish to be contacted by the ISG. In this event, the ISG will
access the BuzzTrack system and mark your customer record as ''closed'', at
which time, you are removed from ''active'' status.

address is requested. In accordance with various state laws, a specific price
quote can only be offered to a unique individual - not to the public at large.

yourself as an individual by entering your email address.

www.herbchamberslexus.com Security Statement

At www.herbchamberslexus.com, we've taken important measures to keep the information
you share with us safe and secure.
 
Secure Technology:

www.herbchamberslexus.com uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology to
protect your personal information provided on credit applications and where
credit card information is required. SSL encrypts or codes this information as
it travels over the Internet, and is then decoded by www.herbchamberslexus.com and its
business partners who facilitate your transactions on this web site.
 
We do not read personal communications. We do not give out your telephone
number, credit card information, or screen names, unless authorized to do so or
as required by law.
 
 
How do I know when my information is protected?

You can tell if you are using a Web browser that supports SSL if a "key" or
"padlock" icon appears in one of the lower corners of your screen (For example,
when using Netscape you will see a key; when using Internet Explorer you will
see a padlock). When you enter a secure page, the key is "unbroken" or the lock
is closed. This means that your communications are now secure, encrypted, and
cannot be read by non-authorized sources.
 
Another sign that you are in a secure transaction mode is a URL that begins
with "https:". When you see any of these symbols on your browser, you know that
your information is protected and you can interact with the website with
confidence.
