Cookies: A cookie is a small text or data file that is sent to your browser from a website's computer and is stored on your computer's hard drive. Most browsers automatically accept cookies as the default setting but allow you to block, delete, or pre-approve cookies. However, if you do that, certain websites, including our Site may not work fully or properly (e.g., you may not be able to access or use certain pages, features, or functionality). Some of the cookies that we use may be flash cookies/Adobe cookies, which are more persistent in nature. These cookies may not be deleted when your cookies are deleted. If you are interested in learning more about this, you should check your browser to determine where these types of cookies are stored and how they may be deleted. If you wish to block, delete, or pre-approve the use of cookies, you generally must do so on each computer and browser on which you wish to block, prevent, or pre-approve such cookies.

We use certain service providers in order to better understand our users’ needs and to optimize our Site and experience (e.g., how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.). This enables us to build and maintain our Site with user feedback. These service providers store this information on our behalf in a pseudonymized user profile and they are contractually forbidden to sell any of the data collected on our behalf.

To facilitate the delivery of relevant content, some cookies we use are for ‘Google Analytics’. Those are used to identify how users engage with our Site and to provide us with interest and demographic information regarding Site visitors. We may also use this information to optimize marketing and refine advertising and/or programming strategies. For a complete privacy notice and instructions to “opt out” of Google Analytics’ data aggregation and usage, please see www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners.

Web Beacons: A web beacon is an electronic image, also called a "gif," that may be in the form of a "png" image, as well as iframe, script, input link, embed, object, and other tags that are used to track usage. We may use these web beacons on our Site to deliver cookies, to attribute sales to any advertising media or affiliate partners with whom we may have a relationship, to count visits, to compile statistics about usage, to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns, and/or in emails that we may send you in order to tell if you have opened or acted on an email that we have sent you.

Pixels: A pixel is a piece of code or an electronic image embedded on the Site (but ordinarily not visible to users) that collects information about users’ engagement on that web page.

We also may use Server Log Data to verify that Site visitors meet criteria that we have established as necessary before processing their purchases.

Some content, including advertisements, on the Site may be served by advertisers, third party ad networks, and other advertising companies. Please be advised that such parties may gather information about your visit to the Site or other sites through technologies (such as through cookies, web beacons, and other technologies) to enable such advertising companies to market products or services to you, to monitor which ads have been served to your browser and which webpages you were viewing when such ads were delivered.
