7. Technologies We Use
• Cookies: "Cookies" are small bits of information or small text files that websites send to your browser which may then be stored on the hard drive of your computer as a tag that identifies your computer. Cookies remember information about your activities on the site to make your visits to our website more enjoyable and valuable to you by providing a customized experience and recognizing your preferences when you visit our website. Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies and how to restrict or disable certain cookies. If you have chosen to disable cookies on your browser, some of the functionality of our website may be lost.
• Flash cookies: "Flash cookies" (also called Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") are data files similar to cookies, except that they can store more complex data. Flash cookies are used to remember settings, preferences, and usage, particularly for video, interactive gaming, and other similar services.
• Web server logs: Web server logs are records of activity created by the computer that delivers the webpages you request to your browser. For example, a web server log may record the search term you entered or the link you clicked to bring you the webpage. The web server log may also record information about your browser, such as your IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet, operating system type, browser type, domain, the cookies set on your browser by the server, the language your system uses and country and time zone in which your device is located.
• Web beacons, clear pixels, or pixel tags: To control which web servers can collect information, we may place tags on our web pages called "web beacons". "Web beacons" are computer instructions that link web pages to particular web servers and their cookies. They are small graphic images on a Web page or in an e-mail that can be used for such things as recording the pages and advertisements clicked on by users, or tracking the performance of e-mail marketing campaigns.

We may also use third-party platforms, including platforms operated by social networks, such as Google, Facebook and Pinterest, to show interest-based ads. We may convert your email address, telephone number or other information into a unique value which can be matched by those third parties with a user on their platform or with other data they may have collected from you.

These platforms may have their own privacy notices or policies, which we strongly suggest you review.
