Use of Cookies and Other Online Tracking Technologies
We use cookies, pixels, and other online tracking technologies to collect information, including to understand visitor activity on our Site and to help improve visitors’ experience while using our Site.
A cookie is a small alphanumeric text file sent by a web server and placed on your computer by your web browser. Cookies can be divided into two different types: session and persistent. Session cookies are typically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies, in contrast, remain stored on your computer after you close your browser until they are deleted either because they expire or you delete them.
The types of cookies we use are:
- Session Cookies. We use session cookies to operate our Site, for security purposes, and to customize our users’ experiences.
- Persistent Cookies. We use persistent cookies to remember your preferences and other information, including products you may be interested in, and various settings, and to customize our users’ experience
Cookies are often used in conjunction with other technologies to understand online behavior. For example, the website uses cookies in conjunction with pixels, which are small sections of code that we may place on our Site, to associate particular online activities to a browser or device (e.g., to understand that a browser or device has visited a specific page of our Site and/or to understand the total number of unique users that have visited a specific page of our Site).
We use session cookies in connection with our Site, for security purposes, and to provide you with customizations of your experience, such as highlighting your recently viewed items, to detect and remember your region and language preferences, and track your activities on our Site. We use persistent cookies to ensure that you are directed to the correct regional version of our Site, to remember items you may have put in your “Cart”, in connection with “Tailored Advertising” (which associates a user’s activity and interest information, demographic information, geographic information, and similar information with a browser cookie or other online identifier in order to provide more useful and relevant advertising), and for other customization purposes. We may use the services of third-party providers in connection with our use of cookies.
None of these cookies is strictly necessary to access our Site. You may set your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being set. However, if you do not accept cookies, parts of our Site may function differently and you may not be able to use some portions or features of our Site. For more information about how to manage your cookies and your cookie preferences, please use the “help” menu of your web browser or explore the customer support sections of your web browser.
