Cookie Notice
This Cookie Notice (“Cookie Notice”) is provided as a supplement to our Privacy Notice and provides additional detail regarding how we use cookies and other similar technologies on our Website. This Cookie Notice is governed by our Privacy Notice.
A cookie is an alphanumeric set of characters that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer so that a website can remember who you are to, for example, customize website content and create a better browsing experience. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain or website that created the cookie, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and an alphanumeric value, usually a randomly generated unique number to identify the cookie.
Similar technologies may be used instead of or in conjunction with cookies, such as web beacons, which are small, non-recognizable pictures downloaded to your computer when a specific website is loaded.
When you visit our Website, we may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
To help us recognize you as a unique visitor (just an alphanumeric identifier) when you return to our Website.
To support sales activities and provide direct marketing communications to you if you have consented to receive such communications.
To compile statistics that allow us to understand how users interact with our Website, such as from which web page a user visited prior to arriving at our Website, how long users remained on one of our Website’s pages, and what website users visited directly after they left our Website’s domain(s).
To help us improve our Website.
To protect the security of our Website.
Cookies we use may collect such information as IP address, mobile identifier and the browser and type of operating system of the device you used to access our Website and certain activity data of the device, such as pages viewed and links clicked.
Two types of cookies may be used on our Website: session cookies (which are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the site) and persistent cookies (which remain in the cookie file of your browser for longer though the time period will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie).
Our Website may use the following categories of cookies:
Required Cookies: Required cookies are necessary for the operation, maintenance and/or security of our Website.
Functionality and Analytics Cookies: Functionality cookies remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced or more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages you can customize. Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use our Website, such as which pages visitors go to most often and if they receive error messages from web pages. For example, we may use third parties to help us understand how visitors engage with our Website. This means that when you visit our Website, your browser automatically sends certain information to these third parties. This includes, for example, the web address of the page you’re visiting and your IP address.
Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see a certain advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited a website and may share this information with other organizations such as advertisers.
Disabling and Enabling Cookies
You can use your browser or device settings to review and erase or delete cookies at any time. Note that by disabling certain categories of cookies you may be prevented from accessing some features of our Website, certain content or functionality may not be available, or the Website may not operate correctly.
You may also opt out of third-party cookies relating to behavioral advertising by visiting the following websites:
Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): http://www.aboutads.info/choices/
Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): http://optout.networkadvertising.org
Opting out does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising. It does mean that the company or companies from which you opted out will no longer deliver ads tailored to your browsing preferences and usage patterns. You may temporarily continue to see some tailored ads produced from ongoing advertising campaigns.
The above opt-out tools rely on the use of cookies, and to the extent your browser settings impact use of third-party cookies, the above tools may not operate correctly. The above tools also apply only to the browser on which they are exercised. If you want to apply these tools to multiple devices or multiple browsers, you must exercise these tools on each browser and/or device.
Do Not Track
There are different ways to prevent tracking of online activities. Some web browsers may allow you to enable a do-not-track feature that alerts the websites you visit that you do not want your online activities to be tracked. Our Website may not recognize or react in response to do-not-track signals. At present, no generally accepted standards exist on how companies must respond to do-not-track signals. In the event a final standard is established, we will assess and provide an appropriate response to these signals.
Contact Information
You may contact us as set forth in the Privacy Notice if you have any questions about this Cookie Notice or our associated personal information practices.
