Section 5. How Do We Use Cookies, Tracking Technologies, and Analytics Services? 

We, as well as third parties that provide content, advertising, or other functionality on the Services (including service associates and advertisers), may use cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and other technologies (“Technologies”) to automatically collect information through the Services. Technologies are essentially small data files placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone, or other devices that allow us and our partners to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our Services. 

A “cookie” is a small file containing your preferences that is sent to your browser and sent back by your browser each time your browser accesses our servers. When you visit our Services, we may send your computer or mobile device a cookie that uniquely identifies your browser. Cookies that we may use may only be read by the server that placed them there. Our use of technologies, including cookies, may generally be grouped into one of the following categories:

  • Operationally Necessary. This includes Technologies that allow you access to our Services, applications, and tools that are required to identify irregular site behavior, prevent fraudulent activity, and improve security or that allow you to make use of our functionality;

  • Performance Related. We may use Technologies to assess the performance of our Services, including as part of our analytic practices to help us understand how our visitors use the Services;

  • Functionality Related. We may use Technologies that allow us to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing or using our Services. This may include identifying you when you sign into our Services or keeping track of your specified preferences, interests, or past items viewed;

  • Advertising or Targeting Related. We may use first-party or third-party Technologies to deliver content, including ads relevant to your interests, on our Products and/or Services, or on third-party sites.

By way of example, we use cookies to deliver our Services in your language of choice, to filter results and fulfill other preferences you may have, and to analyze how our users, including you, interact with our Services, such as by tracking user trends and patterns of how people search. Many browsers are set up to accept cookies unless the user changes the settings for cookies. You have control over this and can set your preferences to indicate when a cookie is being sent or to refuse altogether. While you maintain control over your cookie setting, some portions of our Services may not function correctly without cookies. You can review more information about cookies and how to control and delete cookies in various browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Chrome, please click here.  A pixel tag (also known as a web beacon) is a piece of code embedded in the Services that collects information about users’ engagement on that web page. The use of a pixel allows us to record, for example, that a user has visited a particular web page or clicked on a particular advertisement.

Common ID Cookie 

Certain of our Services may also use cookies and similar tracking technologies such as the Common ID cookie.  The Common ID cookie stores a unique user ID in the first-party domain and is accessible to our ad partners. This simple ID can be utilized to improve user matching in connection with ad delivery from our third-party advertisers. These cookies are important devices for measuring advertising effectiveness and ensuring a robust online advertising industry. You can opt out of the Common ID tracking cookie by clicking here. Analytics

We may currently or in the future use web analytics companies to assist us in measuring the effectiveness of our Services. This requires that we allow such web analytics companies to include their own pixel tags and cookies on the Services. These web analytics companies collect information from pixel tags and cookies such as click-throughs by users and other similar information. We use this information to help us learn things like overall user preferences, click-through rates means to improve our Services, and the types of offers that are of most interest to our users.  We control how that data may be used, notwithstanding its collection by third-party web analytics companies. Specifically, we may use Google Analytics to collect information regarding visitor behavior and visitor demographics on our Services. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt out of Google’s collection and processing of data generated by your use of the Services by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Section 6. How Long Do We Keep the Information? 

We will keep your information only for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes of use described above unless longer retention is required or permitted by law. In determining how long to retain information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the information, the purposes for which we process the information, applicable legal requirements, and our legitimate interests. The purposes for which we process information (as well as the other factors listed above) may dictate different retention periods for the same types of information. For example, we retain your email address as an authentication credential (where applicable) as long as you have an account with us and an additional period of time after that for our legitimate interests, and for our fraud and legal compliance purposes. If you opt out of email marketing, we maintain your email on our suppression list for an extended time to comply with your request. We may also choose to anonymize certain information you provide to us so that it can no longer be attributed to you if we would like to retain it for longer periods of time.

Section 7. How Do We Protect Your Personal Data? 

We take the protection of your Personal Information very seriously. Only our employees, contractors, service associates, and agents will have access to your Personal Information, except as otherwise provided for in this Privacy Policy.
