Cookies Policy & Disclosure

Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising

Cookies

We and other parties may use cookies and similar technologies like pixels (also known as clear GIFs) to collect your data. Cookies serve a variety of purposes, such as helping you navigate and interact with us, making your experience more relevant and personalized, helping us analyze, saving your preferences, authenticating you, and enabling certain kinds of advertising. The cookies on the Services may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties (third-party cookies). We may use session cookies (which are deleted when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your browser or device for longer). We may also use pixels in emails you receive from us to record actions such as whether you open an email or click a link in it.

Analytics

We and third-party web analytics services, including Google Analytics, may use cookies and similar technologies on the Services for analytics purposes. You can find more information about Google’s analytics practices here. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on by clicking here. Any preferences you have exercised through these methods will only apply to the specific device/browser on which you made them, so if you want these preferences to apply when you access the Services from a different browser or device, you will need to install the browser add-on or otherwise indicate your preferences in that specific browser or device.

Online Advertising

On the Services, we may allow third party cookies and third-party advertising technologies (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Google’s ad services) that use cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant and targeted advertisements and other content to you. These ads may be based on the content of the page you are visiting, automatically collected information, information you provide, and other information about you. These ads may also be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites, and may be tailored to your interests.

If you are interested in how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer or mobile browser to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out Link and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s WebChoices Tool to opt out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. For region-specific opt-out options, please see Supplemental Privacy Notice below.

Do Not Track

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that is available in certain web browsers which you can learn more about here. We, like many other services, do not currently recognize or respond to browser initiated DNT signals. Please note that DNT is different than the user “preference signal”, which is a browser-based control that indicates whether you would like to opt out of processing of your information for certain purposes, such as the “sale” of your information or the disclosure of your information for targeted advertising purposes, as defined under applicable laws.

This includes disclosures for fraud prevention.

You may choose to post or otherwise provide information in such a way that other parties can view or access this information. For example, if you interact with the website via social media platforms or use “social features” on the Services (e.g., Facebook plugins), such social media platforms may have access to information about you. If you participate in community forums, others may have access to information submitted or otherwise posted on those forums. Your choice to disclose information in these ways is not a disclosure of your information by us.
