• Cookies. A cookie is a small text file that is saved on your web browser when you visit a website. You can view and delete existing cookies through your browser. If you do not want to store cookies on your computer, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent.

• Pixel Tags (aka clear gifs). These are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, which allow us to monitor the use of our Services, for example, to count users who have visited those pages and for other related website statistics. Pixel tags generally work in conjunction with cookies, registering when a particular device visits a particular page. You cannot decline pixel tags; however, if you turn off cookies the pixel tag will simply detect an anonymous visit.
