Definitions
Cookies:
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user's computer for record
keeping purposes. Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies.
A session cookie expires when you close your browser and is used to make it
easier for you to navigate our website. A persistent cookie remains on your
hard drive for an extended period of time.
Through the use of a cookie, we also may automatically collect information about
your online activity on our site, such as the web pages you visit, the links
you click, and the searches you conduct on our site. When you sign in to your
account on our website, we will record your user or member ID and the name on
your user or member account in the cookie file on your computer. We also may
record your password in this cookie file, if you indicated that you would like
your password saved for automatic sign-in. For security purposes, we will
encrypt any usernames, passwords, and other user or member account-related data
that we store in such cookies. In the case of sites and services that do not
use a user or member ID, the cookie will contain a unique identifier. We may
allow our authorized service providers to serve cookies from our website to
allow them to assist us in various activities, such as doing analysis and
research on the effectiveness of our site, content and advertising.
You may delete or decline cookies by changing your browser settings. (Click
"Help" in the toolbar of most browsers for instructions.) If you do so, some of
the features and services of our website may not function properly.
We may allow third-parties, including Böner companies, advertising companies,
and ad networks, to display advertisements on our site. These companies may use
tracking technologies, such as cookies, to collect information about users who
view or interact with their advertisements. Our website does not provide any
personal information to these third parties, but they may collect information
about where you, or others who are using your computer, saw and/or clicked on
the advertisements they deliver, and possibly associate this information with
your subsequent visits to the advertised websites. They also may combine this
information with personal information they collect from you. The collection and
use of that information is subject to the third-party's privacy policy. This
information allows them to deliver targeted advertisements and gauge their
effectiveness. Some of these third-party advertising companies may be
advertising networks that are members of the Network Advertising Initiative,
which offers a single location to opt out of ad targeting from member companies
(www.networkadvertising.org).
Web Beacons:
Web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags or web bugs) are tiny graphics
with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track
the online movements of web users or to access cookies. Unlike cookies which
are stored on the user's computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded
invisibly on the web pages (or in email) and are about the size of the period
at the end of this sentence.
Web beacons may be used to deliver or communicate with cookies, to count users
who have visited certain pages and to understand usage patterns. We also may
include web beacons in promotional or other e-mail messages or newsletters to
determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon. We also may receive
an anonymous identification number if you come to our site from an online
advertisement displayed on a third-party website.
