Cookies

A cook­ie is a small piece of data sent from a web­site or appli­ca­tion and stored on your com­put­er or device by your web brows­er. The file is added once you agree to store cook­ies on your com­put­er or device, and the cook­ie helps ana­lyze web traf­fic or lets you know when you vis­it a par­tic­u­lar site. Cook­ies allow sites to respond to you as an indi­vid­ual. The Web­site can also tai­lor its oper­a­tions to your needs, likes, and dis­likes by gath­er­ing and remem­ber­ing infor­ma­tion about your preferences.

This Web­site col­lects cook­ies and may use cook­ies for rea­sons includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to:

  • Ana­lyze our web traf­fic using an ana­lyt­ics package
  • Iden­ti­fy if you are signed in to the Website
  • Test con­tent on the Website
  • Store infor­ma­tion about your preferences
  • Rec­og­nize when you return to the Website

Over­all, cook­ies help us pro­vide you with a bet­ter Web­site, by enabling us to mon­i­tor which pages you find use­ful and which you do not. A cook­ie in no way gives us access to your com­put­er or any infor­ma­tion about you, oth­er than the data you choose to share with us.

You can accept or decline cook­ies. Most web browsers auto­mat­i­cal­ly accept cook­ies, but you can mod­i­fy your brows­er set­ting to decline cook­ies if you pre­fer. This set­ting may pre­vent you from tak­ing full advan­tage of the Website.

This Web­site is intend­ed for use by a gen­er­al audi­ence and does not offer ser­vices to chil­dren. Should a child whom we know to be under 18 send per­son­al infor­ma­tion to us, we will use that infor­ma­tion only to respond to that child to inform him or her that they can­not use this Website.
