Information Automatically Collected From Your Web Browser. As you navigate through and interact with our Website, automatic data collection technologies collect certain non-personal information about your equipment and browsing actions.

We collect information automatically sent to us from your web browser on the device you are using to connect to the internet to view our Website. This will include your “IP address” and may include your internet service provider, the operating system and browser you used, web pages on our Website you have visited, the time and date of your visit, the Website you came through to reach our Website, and whether or not links which may be available on our Website were clicked on. Your IP address is a unique identifier assigned to your computer or device when you connect to the internet. It is used so that electronic information can be sent to you over the internet to your IP address.

The information we receive from your web browser does not identify you by name. Your IP browser information will reveal whether your IP browser accessed our Website through an email communication we send you containing a link to our Website if the link was clicked on. We use this information from your browser to improve our marketing services.

Information from Other Technologies. We also may use standard data tracking technologies such as the following:

Ψ Cookies (or browser cookies). A cookie is a commonly used automated data collection tool. It is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer or device by websites that you visit or emails you open. Cookies make websites work, or work more efficiently, for example, when you return to our Website, cookies enable us to remember information from prior visits, and cookies may save data such as screen preferences and pages viewed. If you wish, you can configure your browser to block cookies; however, your ability to access certain portions of the Website may be affected.

Ψ Web Beacons. Pages of our Website and our emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons that permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related Website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain Website content and verifying system and server integrity). Unlike cookies, you cannot decline web beacons. However, setting your browser to decline cookies or to prompt you for a response generally may keep web beacons from storing your activity.

Ψ Flash Cookies. These are similar to cookies, except that they can store more complex data to provide greater Website functionality and to remember your settings, preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies operate differently than regular browser cookies and cannot be removed or blocked via regular web browser settings. To learn more about how to manage flash cookies, you can visit the Adobe Website and follow the directions provided by Adobe with respect to the Flash settings and make changes as directed therein. Limiting the acceptance of flash cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications.
These technologies are used by us in a variety of ways and primarily to:

Ψ Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.

Ψ Collect information about how users use our Website such as pages they visit, the length of stay and links that are used.

Ψ Facilitate server and network operation and maintenance of the Website.

Ψ Store information about your preferences, allowing us to customize our Website according to your individual interests.

Ψ Better understand the needs and interests of our users.
