DATA SECURITY

You must guard against the loss of your
important data by making backup cop­ies. You can backup your data onto
CDR, CDRW, floppy disk, USB memory
drive or other media such as ZIP
drives. It depends upon how much
data you want to backup. IF you do
this and something happens to the hard
drive in your computer, you have an­other copy of your data. We do not as­sume liability for any data loss or dam­age to data storage units, and no
claims can be accepted for damages re­sulting from the loss of data or any
consequential losses.
