Online Tracking

Cookies are small text files of letters and numbers that are stored and accessed on your browser or the hard drive of your device. Like many companies online, we use services provided by Google and other companies that use cookies and other tracking technology to collect directly from your device information about your browsing activities, your interactions with websites, and the device you are using to connect to the Internet.

The use of these technologies will improve your experience when you browse or use the Services, and allow us to enhance the functionality of the Services, increase security, and measure the use and effectiveness of the Services.

This Policy also governs:

• Pixels: A pixel is a small amount of code on a web page or in an email notification that typically works in conjunction with cookies to identify users and record user behavior. We use pixels to learn whether you have interacted with certain web or email content. This helps us measure and improve the Services and personalize your experience.
• Local Storage: Local storage is an industry-standard technology that allows a website or application to store information locally on your computer or mobile device. We use local storage, including HTML5, to customize what we show you based on your content consumption and other past interactions with the Services.
• Device Identifiers: Device identifiers are distinctive numbers associated with a smartphone or similar handheld device. We use mobile device identifiers for purposes set out in this Policy, for example to recognize your device when you return to the Services or otherwise use the Services.

We use the following types of cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are necessary for the Services to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They allow us to enable security, prevent fraud and debug the website and are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for Services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but then some parts of the Services will not work.
• Analytical or Performance cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of the Services. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Services. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited the Services and will not be able to monitor its performance.
• Functional cookies: These are used to recognize you when you return to the Services. This enables us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name and remember your account preferences.
• Marketing cookies: These cookies are used by third-party advertisers or publishers to display personalized advertising. They do this by tracking your activity across websites.

We use both persistent cookies and session cookies. Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them, while session cookies are deleted once you close your web browser. The cookies placed through your use of the Services are either set by us (first-party cookies) or by a third party at our request (third-party cookies)

You have a number of options to object, control or limit how we, our partners, and other third parties use cookies. You can block cookies through the mechanisms described below. However, note that cookies are important to many aspects of the Services. If you disable all cookies, you may not be able to enjoy all features of the Services.

• Blocking cookies in your browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies, including cookies used for interest-based advertising. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
