Additional details about our use of these technologies can be found below.
Cookies. Cookies are files that are transferred to your device through your web browser for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies enable you to log in to the Sites or save certain settings and preferences, while others allow us to track usage and activities on the Sites, personalize content on the Sites, or deliver more relevant ads on the Sites and third-party services. If your browser automatically accepts cookies, you can set your browser options to block them. Please refer to your browser’s “Help” section to learn how to prevent your device from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. If you disable cookies, however, certain features on the Sites may not be available or function properly.
Pixel Tags and Embedded Scripts. Pixel tags (aka clear GIFs or web beacons) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your device, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use these in connection with the Sites to, among other things, track activity on the Sites and gather usage information and personalize and manage content on the Sites. We may also use these in HTML emails to help us identify when our emails are viewed, track whether our emails are forwarded, and track email response rates.
Session Replay Scripts. We use session replay software to capture information concerning your interaction(s) with the Sites, including keystrokes, mouse movements, and clicks; movements within a webpage and through a Site; interactions with menus, banners, and forms; and form field entries. We may use third-party software embedded in the script of a Site to monitor your interaction with the Site and/or for our compliance verification purposes, which may mean that the third-party software provider also collects this information. By using the Sites, you consent to this collection and disclosure of your information.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to better understand how users interact with the Sites. For information on Google Analytics’ information handling practices and how you can control the use of information sent to Google, please visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. If you wish to prevent your information from being used by Google Analytics, Google has developed the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Opt-Out Preference Signals and “Do-Not-Track” Signals. If you enable the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) on your browser when visiting the Sites, the Sites will treat the signal as a valid request to exercise your opt-out right(s) under applicable privacy law. For more information about the GPC and to learn how to implement it on your browser, please click here. Please note the Sites do not recognize or respond to any signal which your browser might transmit through its so-called “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) feature. If you wish to disable cookies on the Sites, you should not rely on DNT browser settings. For more information about DNT signals, please click here.
Interest-based Advertising
We work with third-party ad networks, channel partners, measurement service providers, analytics providers, and others (“third-party ad companies”) to display advertising on the Sites and to manage or measure our advertising on third-party websites, social media platforms, mobile apps, and online services. We and these third-party ad companies may use cookies, pixels tags, and other tools to collect activity information when you visit the Sites (and third-party websites and services), as well as your IP address, device ID, cookie and advertising IDs, other online identifiers, general location information, and, with your consent, your device’s geolocation information. We and these third-party ad companies use this information to serve more relevant ads and content to you and to evaluate the success of such ads and content.
Custom Lists and Matching. We may create and disclose hashed customer list information (such as name and email address) to third parties—such as Facebook and Twitter—so that we can better target ads and content to you and others with similar interests on third-party services. These third parties use the personal information we provide to help us target ads and to enforce their terms, but we do not permit them to use or disclose the personal information we provide to other third-party advertisers.
Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising. You may be able to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising using the browser opt-out tools and consumer choice mechanisms provided by interest-based advertising self-regulatory groups by following the links below:
- Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): http://www.aboutads.info/choices
- Network Advertising Alliance (NAI): http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/
Please note that you will need to opt out separately on all of your browsers and devices, as each opt-out will apply only to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. If you delete or reset your cookies, change browsers, or use a different device, you will have to opt out again on that browser or device.
Using the opt-out methods linked to above will not opt you out of being served advertising. Specifically, you may continue to receive generic or “contextual” ads on the Sites. You may also continue to receive ads tailored to your interests on other websites from companies that do not participate in the above-listed programs.
Some of our advertising partners may provide you with additional choices with respect to interest-based advertising. For example, certain social media platforms may allow you to control your advertising preferences directly through their services.

For these and possibly other reasons, we may be unable to delete personal information upon your request in certain cases.
