COOKIES
Like most sites, we use technologies that are essentially small data files placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile phone (referred to collectively as a “device”) that allow us to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our sites, services, applications, messaging, and tools.
The specific names and types of the cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies we use may change from time to time. In order to help you better understand this Policy and our use of such technologies we have provided the following limited terminology and definitions:
Cookies – Small text files (typically made of letters and numbers) placed in the memory of your browser or device when you visit a website or view a message. Cookies allow a website to recognize a particular device or browser.
There are several types of cookies:
Session cookies expire at the end of your browser session and allow us to link your actions during that particular browser session.
Persistent cookies are stored on your device in between browser sessions, allowing us to remember your preferences or actions across multiple sites.
First-party cookies are set by site you are visiting.
Third-party cookies are set by a third party site separate from the site you are visiting.
Cookies can be disabled or removed by tools that are available as part of most commercial browsers. The preferences for each browser you use will need to be set separately and different browsers offer different functionality and options.
Web beacons – Small graphic images (also known as “pixel tags” or “clear GIFs”) may be included on our sites, services, applications, messaging, and tools. Web beacons may be used for a number of purposes, including to measure the performance of our sites, to monitor how many visitors view our sites and how they navigate them, to count how many emails that were sent were actually opened, to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising, or to count how many particular items, articles, or links were actually viewed.
Similar technologies for storing information – Technologies that store information in your browser or device utilizing local shared objects or local storage, such as flash cookies, HTML 5 cookies, and other web application software methods. These technologies can operate across all your browsers. In some instances, the use of local storage may not be fully managed by browsers but requires management through special tools. We may use such similar technologies for storing information to help ensure that your account security is not compromised or to spot irregularities in behavior to prevent your account from being accessed in an unauthorized manner, or to assess the performance of our sites, services, applications or tools. We do not use such technologies for storing information to target advertising to you on or off our sites.
We may use the terms “cookies” or “similar technologies” interchangeably in our policies to refer to all technologies that we may use to store data in your browser or device or that collect information or help us identify you in the manner described above.
