What are Cookies?

Most cookies are incredibly simple and just one of many pieces of information stored on your machine. In its basic form, a web server sends you a cookie when a website is accessed via your browser and your web browser stores it. The browser then returns the cookie to the same web server whenever the page is referenced again. Using this cookie, the website can then remember you from a previous visit and keep certain information stored about you and your actions on the site.

For example, let’s say you buy something from a big online store and you give your shipping information for your purchase to be delivered to you. The next time you return to the site, you might see a greeting that is personalized with your name, because the website remembers your personal information from your last visit. In most cases, this is possible because that site is using cookies to remember you.

Overview

Our sites may use session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you delete them). 

We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first-party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device, which we use to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits our services; and (2) third-party cookies, which are served by service providers or business partners on our services, and can be used by these parties to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other websites. Third-party cookies can be used for a variety of purposes, including site analytics, advertising, and social media features.

In addition to cookies, our sites may use other similar technologies, such as pixel tags and web beacons to collect information automatically on our sites and interactions with emails. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on webpages or within HTML formatted emails. Pixel tags are used to demonstrate whether a webpage was accessed or that certain content was viewed, typically to measure the success of our marketing campaigns or engagement with our emails and to compile statistics about usage of the Services, so that we can manage our content more effectively.

What type of cookies do we use and what are they used for?

We use the following types of cookies on our sites:

• Strictly Necessary. These cookies are required to enable core functionality such as security, network management, your cookie preferences and accessibility. Without them you wouldn't be able to use our basic services. You may disable these by changing your browser settings, but this may affect how the websites function.‍
• Performance and Functional. These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our websites but are not required for our sites to function. However, without these cookies, certain functionality like videos may become unavailable or you may be required to enter your login details every time you visit the websites as we would not be able to remember that you previously logged in.‍
• Targeting (Market, Advertising, Analytics). These account-based cookies enable us to identify future prospects and personalize sales and marketing interactions with them. They also collect information that is used to help us understand how our websites are being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are. Cookies in this category can also collect information over time about your online activity on the websites and other online services to make online advertisements more relevant to you, perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, and ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers.
