`WARNING:
`
`Petitioner/applicant is cautioned to avoid submitting personal information in documentsfiled in a patent application that may
`contribute to identity theft. Personal information such as social security numbers, bank account numbers,or credit card
`numbers (other than a check or credit card authorization form PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes) is never required by
`the USPTO to supporta petition or an application. If this type of personal information is included in documents submitted to
`the USPTO,petitioners/applicants should consider redacting such personal information from the documents before submitting
`them to the USPTO. Petitioner/applicant is advised that the record of a patent application is available to the public after
`publication of the application (unless a non-publication request in compliance with 37 CFR 1.213(a) is made in the application)
`or issuance of a patent. Furthermore, the record from an abandonedapplication may also be available to the public if the
`application is referenced in a published application or an issued patent (see 37 CFR 1.14). Checks and credit card authorization
`forms PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposesare not retained in the application file and therefore are not publicly
`available.
