Links to External Web Sites
As a convenience to our visitors, ESS has links to external Web sites that are owned and operated by third parties. ESS makes no representation whatsoever regarding the content of any other Web sites that you may access from this site. When linking to an external site, please understand that it is independent from ESS, and we have no control over the content on that Web site.

It is the user’s responsibility to check each site for its own privacy statement and terms and conditions of use.
Accessibility
ESS’s goal is for continuous access, 24 hours per day, to our Web site. However, there may be times when the site is unavailable due to routine maintenance. Maintenance times are selected after identifying peak usage times to avoid the site being down during those periods.
Limitations of Liability
ESS does not guarantee that service will be uninterrupted or error-free. Content is provided on an as-is, as-available basis. ESS does not guarantee that any file available for downloading is free of viruses or similar contamination or destructive features.

We collect IP addresses (the Internet address of a computer) to track use; individual users remain anonymous. We analyze this data for trends and statistics about page viewing frequency and sequence to improve our site and the services we offer. We do not link your IP address to anything personally identifiable. Nevertheless, you should know that, if necessary, an IP address, including yours, can and will be used to identify anyone responsible for threatening the integrity or security of the site or our computer systems and information networks.
