We may use cookies (small text files that are stored on the hard drives of a visitor’s computer when they access our Services) to collect this information as well as for other purposes, including but not limited to recognizing prior users, retrieving information previously provided by visitors to the Site, remembering passwords of individuals, and for direction to certain areas of our Site. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and more persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide the Services.   We may also use Web beacons (also commonly known as “pixels” or “pixel tags”) to track information about visitors after they leave the Site, to access cookies, to count page visits, as part of our email campaigns, and otherwise to facilitate visitors’ online experience. In addition, we may contract with third parties that place cookies, Web beacons or other tools on our site to assist us in collecting non-personal information about our visitors and to provide us with analytics.  For instance, the Services use analytics tools provided by Google to help us understand how people use the Services and where our users are located. Users can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level. If you reject or turn off cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some features or areas of our site may be limited.  The “Help” segment of the toolbar on most browsers explains how to configure a browser to not accept new cookies, how to have the browser inform a user when they receive a new cookie, and how to erase cookies from their hard drives.

We may combine the non-personal information that we collect with the personal information that we collect about our visitors.

Although we do our best to honor the privacy preferences of our visitors, we are not able to respond to Do Not Track signals from your browser.
