WEB PRIVACY POLICY
Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 21, 2018
We employ the use of cookie technology throughout our site, to allow you to move more quickly and securely through our pages. This is all made possible by cookie technology. Below you’ll find information describing our specific use of cookies, which are an inherent part of our production process and have enabled us to better serve you.
What’s a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that’s sent to your computer or other device by a site’s server. A cookie can be a record of your visit to a site, including information such as your User Name, time of last visit, pages viewed, etc. Contrary to what you might read elsewhere, cookies cannot get information from your hard drive against your will, destroy files, send you viruses, etc. An important point: Cookies can only contain as much information as you disclose to the site that sent it to you! In our case, that means any information included in your subscription form or that you input during the customization of our site.
Why do you use cookies?
We use cookies for basic reasons: We accomplish this in many ways, using several different cookies. When you first enter our site, for example, we use a test cookie to confirm your browser’s ability to retain cookies, and log the Internet protocol (IP) that your session originates from. A cookie is then temporarily “set” within your browser to allow you to proceed.
So, do you track my usage patterns using cookies?
We track the usage of various features within our sites using Google analytics on an aggregate basis. However, we do not track your usage or other personal information in any individually identified way.
Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals to websites visited by the user. Our information collection and disclosure practices will continue to apply as described in this policy, regardless of any “Do Not Track” signals that are sent by certain browsers.
Will the cookies you send me go away?
Some of the cookies we use are automatically deleted from your hard drive after the end of the browser session (“session cookies”). We also use cookies that remain on your hard drive for a certain period of time (between every time when the browser tab/window is closed and 6 months, depending on the cookie) after the browser session. “Persistent cookies” are stored on your hard drive and will be deleted by the browser after the given time. You are, of course, free to clear any and all cookies from your hard drive any time you wish. Just search your system for any files named cookie.txt or similar and delete them at your discretion.
So, should I surf your site with my browser’s cookie-alert feature activated?
We’d recommend that you turn that feature off, perhaps after using the site for a day with it on so you can see our cookies firsthand if you wish. Our use of cookies ultimately helps you have a better experience here. And because we rely on cookies throughout our site, you might find it cumbersome to be alerted to each cookie you’ll encounter.
How can I amend my cookie preferences?
You can configure your browser settings to accept or reject all cookies, notify you when a cookie is set, or delete cookies that have already been set. Every browser is different, so check the “Help” menu of your browser to learn about and to change your cookie preferences. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although you may not be able to use certain features on our site. In addition, a number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit web sites anonymously. The site www.allaboutcookies.org includes instructions for managing cookies on many commonly used browses.
