Cookies allow us to serve you better. They allow us to understand Website and internet usage and to improve or customize the content, offerings, or advertisements on our Website.

We also may use cookies to help us offer you products, programs, or services that may be of interest to you.
The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:
- Cookies. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. We use cookies to store information, such as your login credentials and website preferences, so that we can remember certain choices you’ve made. Cookies can also be used to recognize your device so that you do not have to provide the same information more than once.
- Web beacons. Pages of our services or our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
- Mobile device identifiers and SDKs. A mobile SDK is the mobile app version of a web beacon. The SDK is a bit of computer code that app developers can include in their apps to enable ads to be shown, data to be collected, and related services or analytics to be performed.
- Other technologies. There are other local storage and Internet technologies, such as local shared objects (also referred to as “Flash cookies”) and HTML5 local storage, which operate similarly to the technologies discussed above.
You may be able to refuse or disable cookies by adjusting your web browser settings. Some browsers have options that allow the visitor to control whether the browser will accept cookies, reject cookies, or notify the visitor each time a cookie is sent. Because each web browser is different, please consult the instructions provided by your web browser (typically in the “help” section). Please note that you may need to take additional steps to refuse or disable local shared objects and similar technologies. If you choose to refuse, disable, or delete these technologies, some of the functionality of our Website may no longer be available to you. Deleting cookies may, in some cases, cancel the opt-out selection in your browser.
