Your information.

A cookie is a small text file (which typically includes a piece of computer code) that is stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies are sent by our website (or the website of a company we have a relationship with) to your computer, mobile phone or other device when you visit our website. When you visit a website, that website's computer asks your computer for permission to store this text file in a section of your hard drive that is specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it.

A Web beacon is a graphic image, such as a pixel tag or clear GIF, which is placed on a Web page or in an e-mail message to monitor user activity, such as whether the Web page or e-mail message is accessed or clicked. They are also used on many Web pages for alignment purposes.

We sometimes use Web beacons to provide an independent accounting of how many people visit our website or to gather statistics about browser usage on our website. Some of our Web pages and HTML-formatted e-mail newsletters use Web beacons in conjunction with cookies. It is difficult for you to limit the use of Web beacons because there is no easy way to distinguish their use from alignment and other purposes. Web beacons may also be loaded from a different Web server than the rest of the page.

Some of our e-mails may also contain pixels or code to gather information regarding e-mail behavior and for analytics. We may share this information with third parties.

We use cookies to store login and other information on your computer, which serves to improve our website functionality and tailor our services to your preferences and interests.

Other uses include preventing, detecting and investigating potentially prohibited or illegal activities, including enforcing our Terms of Use agreement. For certain services, we offer users the ability to store a user ID or password within a cookie so that they do not need to re-enter it when they subsequently return to our website. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our website and to assess which parts of the site are most popular. This information helps us to constantly improve our website and better serve our customers. Some of our cookies may be tied to personally identifiable information, such as IP address. We do not store credit/debit card numbers in cookies. Cookies may be used to store a unique identification number tied to your computer so that a website can recognize you as the same user across different visits to the website. For more information about the type of information that is collected on website visitors, see our Privacy Policy section.

Some cookies are necessary to make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Preference cookies enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or the region that you are in. Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display content that is relevant and engaging for the individual user.

Some cookies help website owners to understand how visitors interact with websites. Cookies that provide analytics services can collect IP address or other identifiers, browser information, and information about the content that you view. These analytic services help us to know how many users we have, which parts of our sites are most popular, what browsers are used, the country or region where users are located, and the demographics and interests of users.
