Use of Cookies, Web Beacons, and Similar Tracking Technologies   We (and our service providers) use different technologies to collect information, including cookies and web beacons and other tracking mechanisms. Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to your hard drive to store and sometimes track information about you. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that. However, you may not be able to take full advantage of our Services if you do so. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Although they do identify a user’s computer, cookies do not personally identify customers or passwords. Credit card information is not stored in cookies. We use cookies for the following reasons: (i) To identify who you are and to access your account information; (ii) To estimate our audience size and patterns; (iii) To track preferences and to improve and update our Services; and (iv) To track the progress and number of entries in some of our promotions and contests. We also may use web beacons to collect non-personal information about your use of our Services. Web beacons are tiny graphic images that are placed on a website or in an e-mail and used to monitor the behavior of the user visiting the website or sending the e-mail. The information collected by web beacons allows us to statistically monitor (i) how many people are using our websites, (ii) how many people open our e-mails, and (iii) for what purposes these actions are being taken. Our web beacons are not used to track your activity outside of our websites or emails. We do not link non-personal information from web beacons to personally identifiable information. Since web beacons are used in combination with cookies, if you disable cookies, the web beacons will only detect an anonymous website visit.
