In certain jurisdictions, you may have the right not to provide Personal Information.  However, if you elect not to provide such information, you may not be able to utilize certain services on the Website.

COOKIES/ONLINE TRACKING

Some information that we collect about you is collected passively through the use of "cookies."  Cookies are small files of information, which save and retrieve information about your visit to the Website - for example, how you entered and navigated our Website, and what information was of interest to you.  We use this information to remember you when you return and to customize our Website to your preferences.  

There are two types of cookies: session and persistent cookies.

  •    Session Cookies. Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your computer when you close your browser or turn off your computer. We use session cookies to allow our systems to uniquely identify you during a session or while you are logged into the Site. This allows us to process your online transactions and requests and verify your identity, after you have logged in, as you move through our Site.
  •    Persistent Cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you have closed your browser or turned off your computer.  

Disabling Cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can edit your browser options to block them in the future. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Site who disable cookies will be able to browse certain areas of the Site, but some features may not function.

We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate usage of our Site.  We also may use other analytic means to evaluate our services.  We use these tools to help us improve our services, performance and user experiences.  These entities may use cookies, tracking pixels and other tracking technologies to perform their services.  We do not share your personal information with these third parties.
