Cookies & Tracking Activity

“Cookies” are small text files that are automatically placed on your computer or other device when you visit a website. The cookies are stored by the internet browser. The browser sends the cookies back to the website on each subsequent visit, allowing the website to recognize your computer or device. This recognition enables the website provider to observe your activity on the website, deliver a personalized, responsive service and improve the website.

Cookies make the use of our Site easier by, among other things, saving your preferences. We may also use cookies to deliver content tailored to your interests. Our cookies may enable us to relate your use of our Site to Personal Information that you previously submitted.

The information we collect with cookies allows us to statistically analyze usage of our Site, and to improve and customize our content and other offerings. However, we only disclose information collected with cookies to third-parties on an aggregated basis without the use of any information that personally identifies you.

Categories of Cookies We May Use. To support our Site and our services, we may use one or more of the following cookies throughout our Site for the purposes set forth below:

  • Essential Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Site and to enable you to use some of its features. Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services.
  • Functionality or Customization Cookies: These cookies allow us to remember choices you make when you use our services. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you visit our Site.
  • Analytics and Performance Cookies: These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to our Site and how users use our Site and services. The information gathered does not identify any individual visitor. The information is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It includes the number of visitors to our Site, the websites that referred them to our Site, the pages that they visited on our Site, what time of day they visited our Site, whether they have visited our Sites before, and other similar information. We use this information to help operate our Site more efficiently, to gather broad demographic information, and to monitor the level of activity on our Site. We use Google Analytics for this purpose to improve how our Site operates. Google Analytics uses its own cookies.

Web Beacons. We may also use other similar technologies on our Site to recognize and track visitors to our Site. A web beacon (also known as a “tracking pixel” or “clear GIF“) is a clear graphic image (typically a one-pixel tag) that is delivered through a web browser or HTML e-mail, typically in conjunction with a cookie. Certain email communications you receive from us may contain web beacons. Web beacons allow us, for example, to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer device that downloaded the page on which the web beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the web beacon appears, the time the page containing the web beacon was viewed, the browser type used to view the page and the information in cookies. We use web beacons for activities such as monitoring the effectiveness of our communications, to understand whether users have come to our Site from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to measure how ads have been viewed and to improve Site performance.

Third-Party Cookies. Please note that third-parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) use third-party cookies in connection with your use of their websites and services, over which we have no control. These third-party cookies are likely to be analytical or performance cookies or targeting cookies. These companies may use information about your visits to our Site and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements.

Additional Information About Cookies. You can find more information about cookies and how they work, what cookies have been set on your computer or mobile device and how to manage and delete them at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

Managing Cookies. You can adjust your computer browser settings so that you are informed when a cookie is being placed on your browser. You can also set your browser to decline or accept all cookies. When you first access our Site you may receive a message advising you that cookies and similar technologies are in use. By clicking “accept cookies,” you understand and agree to the use of the cookies and use of similar technologies described in this Policy.

Do Not Track. Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our Site does not currently respond to DNT signals. You can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, as described above. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

Other Sites

The Site or our social media pages may contain links to websites and other online services operated by third parties. We do not control websites, mobile applications or online services operated by third parties, and we are not responsible for their actions. It is your responsibility to read the privacy policies of the other websites and online services you use.

Security and Data Retention

We take reasonable steps, consistent with generally accepted industry standards, including technical, organizational and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, as no system is fully secure against illegal tampering or “hacking”, security risks are inherent in all internet and information technologies, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

We retain Personal Information for a reasonable period after we no longer need it for the purpose for which it was collected (or for any subsequent purpose that is compatible with the original purpose), taking into account legal requirements that apply to us as well as our legitimate interests. We may also retain your personal information for a longer period if a complaint has been made or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
