COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Cookies

A “cookie” is a small file created by a web server that can be stored on your device (if you allow) for use either during a particular browsing session (a “session” cookie) or a future browsing session (a “persistent” cookie).  “Session” cookies are temporarily stored on your hard drive and only last until they expire at the end of your browsing session.  “Permanent” cookies remain stored on your hard drive until they expire or are deleted by you.  Local stored objects (or “flash” cookies) are used to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on a website. 

Our Sites use first-party cookies and third-party cookies.  First-party cookies are set by the us.  Third-party cookies are set by a party other than us, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers.  Unless you set your browser to refuse cookies as described below, these third-parties may use cookies alone or including personal information about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services.  They may use this information to provide you with behavioral advertising or other targeted content.  We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used.  If you have any questions about targeted content, you should contact the responsible party directly or consult their privacy policies. Below is a list of the different types of cookies that we use on our Sites.

Essential Cookies and Similar Technologies: Essential cookies and other similar technologies used by us enable you to navigate the Sites and use our services and features.  Without these essential features, the Sites will not perform correctly, and we may not be able to provide the Sites to you or provide you with certain services or features of the Sites. 

Preference Cookies and Similar Technologies: Preference cookies collect information about your choices and preferences and allow us to remember language and other local settings and to customize our Sites accordingly. 

Social Media Cookies and Similar Technologies: Social Media cookies and other similar technologies used by us collect information about your use of social media websites and platforms.

Analytics Cookies and Similar Technologies: Analytics cookies and similar technologies used by us collect information about your use of the Sites and enable us to improve the way they work and operate.  Specifically, analytics cookies provide us with information regarding what the most frequently visited pages on the Sites are, help us record and debug any issues you may have with the Sites, and show us how effective our advertising is.  These analytics cookies do not allow us to see the usage of a single user, but do allow us to see overall patterns of usages on the Sites. 

Advertising Cookies and Similar Technologies: Advertising cookies and similar technologies are used by us to display targeting promotions or advertisements based on your use of the Sites and interests and to manage our use of advertising resources.  These cookies collect information about your activities on this and other Sites and help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.  These cookies may also be used to deliver interest-based advertising.  You can learn more about interest-based advertisements and your opt-out rights and options from members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) on its website (www.networkadvertising.org) and from members of the Digital Advertising Alliance on its website (www.aboutads.info).  We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising.  However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose to not have your information collected or used in this way.  You can also opt-out of receiving targeted ads from members of the NAI on its website. 

Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, there are other automatic data collection technologies, such as Internet tags, web beacons (clear gifs, pixel tags, and single pixel gifs) and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, etc.) that we may use to collect data as users navigate through and interact with the Sites.: 

  • Web beacons. These are tiny graphics (sometimes called “clear GIFs” or “web pixels”) with unique identifiers that are used to understand browsing activity. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are rendered invisible on web pages when you open a page.
  • Social Widgets. These are buttons or icons provided by third-party social media providers that allow you to interact with social media services when you view a webpage or mobile app screen. These social widgets may collect browsing data, which may be received by the third party that provided the widget and are controlled by third parties.
  • UTM Codes. These are strings that can appear in a URL (the “Uniform Resource Locator,” which is typically the http or https address entered to go to a web page) when you move from one web page or website to another, where the string can represent information about browsing, such as which advertisement, page, or publisher sent the user to the receiving website.

These technologies allow us to determine the effectiveness of our email, advertising, and marketing efforts.  Particular third-party cookies or tracking technologies used on our Sites include, but are not limited to:

  • Google Analytics: We may use Google Analytics to collect and process data about the number of people using the Sites and to better understand how they find and use the Sites. The data collected may include data related to your device/browser, your IP address, and on-site activities to measure and report statistics about user interactions on the Sites.  The information stored is reduced to a random identifier and we have enabled restricted data processing for all Google services.  We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information.  Any data collected is used in accordance with this Policy and Google’s privacy policy. You may learn more about Google Analytics by visiting:

https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ and https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245 

You can learn more about Google’s restrictions on data use by visiting the Google Privacy Policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy. To opt-out of Google Analytics, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install the opt-out browser add-on feature. For more details, visit the “Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on” page (located at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/181881?hl=en).

  • Facebook Pixel.  We use Facebook Pixel to customize and display advertisements only to Facebook users who have shown an interest in our Sites or who have specific characteristics (e.g., certain demographics or interests in certain topics or products determined by websites visited) that we submit to Facebook.  The use of Facebook Pixel helps ensure that our advertisements are in line with the potential interests of users and do not have a nuisance effect.  Facebook Pixel also allows us to track the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether uses have been redirected to our Sites after clicking on a Facebook advertisement.   The Facebook Pixel is directly integrated into our Sites by Facebook and can store a cookie on your device.  The information collected about you is anonymous for us and Facebook’s Limited Data Use settings have been enabled for applicable states.  However, the information collected via the Facebook Pixel, on the Sites as well as other websites on which Facebook Pixel is installed, is also stored and processed by Facebook.  Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy.

We do not control these third parties’ technologies or website or how they may use your personal data once you are referred to these third-party websites.  If you have any questions, you should contact the responsible party directly or consult their privacy policies.

Choices About Cookies

We provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us, and we have created ways to give you control over our use of your information.  Most web browsers are set by default to accept cookies.  If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to refuse all or some types of cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent by website tracking technologies and advertising. 

If you decline the use of cookies, you may not have access to the full benefits of the Services. Further, your opt-out only applies to the web browser you use, so you must opt out of each web browser on each computer you use. Once you opt out, if you delete your browser’s saved cookies, you will need to opt out again. In addition, adjusting the cookie settings on the services may not fully delete all of the cookies that have already been created. To delete them, visit your web browser settings after you have changed your cookie settings on the services.

DATA RETENTION

We will retain your personal information for an appropriate period of time as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with our business requirements and legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to protect our assets, to provide our services, to enforce our agreements, and other business or commercial purposes to the extent provided in this Policy.

We take reasonable steps to delete the personal information we collect when (1) we have a legal obligation to do so; (2) we no longer have a purpose for retaining the information; or (3) if you ask us to delete your information, unless we determine that doing so would violate our existing, legitimate legal, regulatory, dispute resolution, contractual, or similar obligations.  We may also decide to delete your personal information if we believe it is incomplete, inaccurate, or that our continued storage of your personal information is contrary to our legal obligations or business objectives.  When we delete your personal information, it will be removed from our active servers and databases; but it may remain in our archives when it is not practical or possible to delete it.  To the extent permitted by law, we may retain and use anonymous and aggregated information for performance reporting, benchmarking, and analytic purposes and for product and service improvement.

DATA SECURITY

We recognize the importance of safeguarding your personal information.  We endeavor to maintain reasonable and appropriate security measures in place to protect the personal information that you share with us from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed in an unauthorized manner.  From time to time, we review our security procedures to consider appropriate new technologies and methods. 

While our security measures seek to protect your personal information in our possession, no security system is perfect, and no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.  As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from our Sites, through social media, or by email communications, and you do so at your own risk.  We cannot promise that your personal information will remain absolutely secure in all circumstances. 

The safety and security of your personal information also depends on you.  Where you use a password for access to restricted parts of our Sites, you are responsible for keeping the password confidential.  Do not share your password with anyone.  Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk.  We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Sites.

Once we receive your instruction, we will promptly take corrective action.  Please note that registered users on the Sites cannot opt-out of receiving transaction emails related to their account.
  • Updating Your Personal Information. Our goal is to keep your information accurate, current, and complete.  If any of the personal information you have provided to us changes, please let us know.  For instance, if your email address changes, you may wish to cancel any request you have made of us; or, if you become aware of inaccurate personal information about you, you may use the “Contact Us” details provided at the end of this Policy to update your information.  You may also edit your account details if you have a user account through our Site.  We are not responsible for any losses arising from any inaccurate, inauthentic, deficient, or incomplete personal data that you provide to us. 

ONLINE TRACKING

We do not currently recognize browser settings or signals of tracking preferences, which may include “Do Not Track” instructions.  “Do Not Track” is a web browser setting that seeks to disable the tracking of individual users’ browsing activities.  We adhere to the standards set out in this Policy and do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals on the Sites or on third-party websites or online services where we may collect information.
