Happy Monday everyone! (ughh we know, right).

We just wanted to remind everyone of the website locations to easily get your mobile or home phone numbers listed or updated on the "Do Not call lists".

For Colorado residents, check the below link out. It includes both the state and national sites links.

https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/dora/coloradonocall

Then for those of you who are not in Colorado, here is the national listed linked below directly. If you need your state, we recommend doing a google search for your " + No call list".

https://www.donotcall.gov/

We have been suffering from an absurd amount of calling on our personal and business lines.

We hope this helps everyone and have a great Monday!

Your friendly staff at CG

Over 2.7 million Coloradans sought relief from telemarketers and signed up to be added to the Colorado No-Call List. Telemarketers also play an important role in making this program successful by following consumer wishes not to be called.

Just a few facts of information the importance of password complexity.

How long does it take a hacker to crack your password?

"A password which consists of combination of special characters, numbers, upper and lower case letters is more difficult to crack then a simple string of numbers or alphabets. Most people set 123456, password, 12345678, qwerty, abc123 etc. as their password which makes a hacker’s job a lot easier."
