“Session Cookies” are temporary Cookies that last for only a single browsing session. The information they collect is stored in temporary memory and erased shortly after you leave our Websites or Service or close your browser.

“Persistent Cookies” are stored on your device until you take steps to remove the Cookies or until a particular Cookie’s expiration date (often several months after the Cookie is placed on your device).

The rights and choices available to you may differ based on your location or resident status. All visitors to our Websites and Services should be able to use at least one of the following options to restrict our use of Cookies.

In some locations, we cannot place Cookies without your consent. When we require your consent to Cookies, you will be shown a pop-up cookie notification banner when you first visit our Websites. You will have the option to “Accept All”, “Reject All Non-essential Cookies”, or make additional choices before confirming your consent with the “Confirm My Choices” button within our Cookie Preference banner. If you select “Accept All,” we take that to mean that you have consented to our Cookies unless you have separately disabled them using your own browser settings (see “Opting Out of Cookies Using Your Browser” below).

Some of the ways in which we share personal information from Cookies with our advertising and marketing partners for targeted advertising or disclose it to other companies for their commercial purposes or for our benefit may give you a right to opt out of our use of your personal information for these purposes.

Targeted advertising helps us connect you with the services most likely to be of interest to you.

Two key self-regulatory programs are available to help you control the use of Cookies on your browsers – the Digital Advertising Alliance and the Network Advertising Initiative. Both programs help to regulate vendors in the digital advertising space. One function of their self-regulatory programs is to give you the ability to opt out of targeted (or interest-based) advertising, including Cookies, from their member companies. If you live in the United States, Canada, or the European Economic Area and United Kingdom, you can visit the relevant Digital Advertising Alliance website to find a convenient place to opt out of targeted advertising for participating vendors for each region – Ad Choices (US), Your Ad Choices (Canada), or Your Online Choices (EEA and UK). The Network Advertising Initiative assists with opt outs through their Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising webpage.

You also may be able to use a Global Privacy Control browser signal or other recognized opt-out preference signal, allowing you to opt out of the online sharing of personal information that we collect through Cookies for our own uses. We recognize such signals to the extent feasible. Please note that these browser-based signals need to be activated through the appropriate settings for each browser you use to access our Websites or they will not be uniformly effective.
