Cookies are packets of information that are stored on your server when you visit our website.

Action or pixel tags are unique identifiers that are embedded on webpages to track the activity and popularity of pages and features.

For more information about how targeted advertising works, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s (“NAI”) educational page at http://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/how-does-it-work.

We use a number of different cookies, including functional, performance, advertising, and social media or content cookies. Cookies also provide information on how you use the website, for instance, whether it’s your first time visiting and which webpages you visit most often.

Cookies remain on your computer or mobile device for different periods of time depending on whether they are "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Session cookies last until you stop browsing. Almost all of the cookies we use are persistent, so they will expire between 30 minutes and two years after download.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies through your browser controls, often found in your browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences” menu. More information on how to modify your browser settings or how to block, manage or filter cookies can be found in your browser’s help file or through such sites as www.allaboutcookies.org.

Additionally, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent how we share information with third parties such as our advertising partners.
