What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes
an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site,
that site's computer asks your computer for permission to
store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically
designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie
to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it,
but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits
a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to
you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Browsers
are usually set to accept cookies. However, if you would
prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the configuration
of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have
your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some areas
of our site will not function as effectively when viewed
by the users. A cookie cannot retrieve any other
data from your hard drive or pass on computer viruses.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you visit and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies
to differentiate you from other users. In some cases, we
also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in more
than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction
with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the
aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which
parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather
feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve
our clients. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal
information about you and we do not intentionally store
any personal information that your browser provided to us
in your cookies.
