TARGETED ADVERTISING

Some web browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signal that is a HTTP header field indicating your preference regarding tracking or cross-site user tracking. Although we are currently unable to honor DNT signals, we do not collect personal information when you visit our Website unless you provide such information to us. We also work with third parties that use tracking technologies on our Website in order to provide tailored advertisements on our behalf and on behalf of other advertisers across the Internet. These companies may collect information about your activity on our sites and your interaction with us or our advertising and other communications, and use this information to determine which ads you see on third party websites and applications. For more information about this practice and to understand your options, please visit www.youradchoices.com (U.S.), www.youradchoices.ca (Canada), or the Network Advertising Initiative atwww.networkadvertising.org.

COOKIES AND OTHER FEATURES

We also use a feature of your browser called a cookie to assign identification to your computer that may be placed by us or a third party with whom we partner. Cookies allow us to better understand your preferences and personalize the content on our Website and marketing to give you a better overall shopping experience. The unique user ID contained within your cookie automatically identifies your computer (but not you) to our servers every time you visit our Website. Cookies by themselves cannot be used to find out the identity of any user, but may be combined with identity information in our log files. You can turn off the cookie feature by using your browser preference options, but you may not be able to utilize some of the features or services on our Website properly. Current versions of many web browsers offer enhanced user controls for the placement and duration of cookies. You can search for “cookies” under your web browser’s Help menu for more information on the cookie management features available to you.

PIXELS

We also collect information through the use of “pixel tags” on our Website and in email messages, and other marketing or advertising materials (e.g., Facebook ads) we may send to you that may be placed by us or a third party with whom we partner. Pixel tags, also known as “Web beacons,” are tiny graphic files, not visible to the human eye, that are included in HTML-encoded email messages. When such a message is opened in an HTML-capable email program, the recipient’s computer will access our server to retrieve the pixel tag file, allowing us to record and store, along with the recipient’s email address, the date and time the recipient viewed the email message, the fact that the recipient’s email program is capable of receiving HTML-encoded email, and other standard logging information. The pixel tag may also see or read cookies. We may use pixel tags in order to measure and understand traffic better, to track visitor behavior to improve user experience, and for tracking promotional and marketing campaign response, among others. You can disable the pixel tag feature by changing your browser settings to omit images and disable Javascript; or there are commercial software packages available that can omit pixel tags and most advertisements.
