Information We Collect
IP Address
The Company's Web site logs IP addresses for system administration purposes. Your IP address can help us diagnose problems with our server and track a user's session to give us an idea of which parts of our site users are visiting. In addition, we track system information, such as the type of browser you are using, your operating system, and the referring IP address. We use this information in aggregate only.
Registration
A significant amount of the site is available without registration, but in order to take advantage of some of its features, you must register and create a member account. The Company's on line registration form requires you to provide your full name, e-mail address, ZIP code, a User Name, and password. All other registration information is optional and is marked as such. We hope that, like many users, you will want to provide information about yourself so that we can continue to make our Web site more valuable to you.
Credit Card Data
TTBappraisers.com does not retain or store credit card information without your request and consent. Any credit card information we retain, at your request, is encrypted and secure.

If you take the previously mentioned action, we will not send you any more marketing messages. We will never send you unsolicited messages. From time to time, AppraisersFirst.com does purchase mailing lists.
