How We Respond To Do-Not-Track Signals & Universal Opt-Out Mechanisms
A “do-not-track” signal is a privacy preference feature in some web browsers that tells a website that a user does not want their online activity to be tracked. We currently support Do Not Track (“DNT”) and Global Privacy Control (“GPC”), specifications designed to allow internet users to notify businesses of their privacy preferences, such as whether or not they want to be tracked or have their personal information sold or shared with third parties for targeted advertising. These specifications consist of a setting or extension in the user’s browser or mobile device and act as mechanisms that our websites can use to honor your privacy settings. If your browser or device has enabled DNT or GPC, it will override your preferences selected in the cookie banner or privacy settings on this Site.
You can learn more about DNT by clicking here. GPC is available for an increasing number of browsers and browser extensions, click here to view the options. If you want to use GPC, you can download and enable it via a participating browser or browser extension. More information about downloading GPC can be found by clicking here.

Use of Cookies & Similar Technologies
We use cookies and other similar technologies (e.g. web beacons, tracking pixels, scripts, fingerprinting, and local storage) to deliver content specific to your interests, track your website activity, help our Site remember you, enhance your online experience with us, and provide you with information you’re most likely to need. Cookies are small pieces of text used to store information on web browsers. Cookies and any technology that serves a similar purpose as a cookie in the context of tracking users/devices, identifying users/devices, processing information that users or their devices send to or through the Site, or building consumer profiles are included in our use of the term “cookie” for the purpose of this Privacy Policy. We, our service providers, or third-parties (e.g., advertisers and social media) may use and/or receive information from“first-party cookies” or “third-party cookies” as described below.
Cookies are first categorized by who places them or who is intended to receive information from them (first-party vs. third party), and secondly by their purpose.
- First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-Party Cookies.
First-Party Cookies refer to cookies that are created or placed by us. Many first-party cookies are essential cookies as described below.
Third-Party Cookies.
Third-party cookies refer to any cookie that is created or placed by a third-party. A third-party cookie often (but not always) shares or enables the sharing of information to an entity other than our own Site.
We employ a holistic approach to determine if a cookie is classified as “first-party” or “third-party” including the domain that creates the cookie; the cookie’s domain attribute; and the domain of the server to which network requests that transmit information related to the cookie are sent.Accordingly, under this definition, even cookies with a first-party domain attribute may be classified as a “third-party cookie” if the cookie is set by, used by, or shared with a third party.
- Cookie Purpose Categories
Essential Cookies.
Essential cookies refer to cookies that are critical for the functioning of a website. These cookies enable basic features such as page navigation, and access to secure areas of the website. Essential cookies are typically used to maintain a user's session, store authentication information, hold shopping cart items, comply with state or federal laws (e.g., accessibility or cookies preferences), and ensure the security of transactions. Without these cookies, a website may not work, or may not be able to provide certain basic services or features, and its performance may be affected. Essential cookies can be first-party cookies or third-party cookies. Our Site does not support an inherent mechanism to allow users to opt-out of essential cookies.
Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the Site to remember choices made by the user, such as language preferences, login details, or region selection, to provide a more personalized experience. These cookies also allow optional functionality to run. Functional cookies are also used to improve the functionality of the Site, such as by tracking errors. In the absence of these cookies, the website will still function, but certain features or enhancements may not be available or may have limited functionality.
Marketing Cookies: Marketing cookies consist of two subcategories of cookies:
Analytics Cookies. These cookies that collect and transmit analytics and statistical information about how visitors use a website. These cookies help website owners understand how visitors interact with their site. The information gathered may include the number of visitors to the site, the pages they visited, the average time spent on the site, and the referring websites. This data is then used to improve the website's performance, content, and user experience. By analyzing visitor behavior, website owners can identify areas that need improvement, optimize their site for better engagement, and make data-driven decisions to enhance their online presence. (Note: not all analytics cookies are used for marketing purposes.)
Targeting Cookies. Also known as targeted advertising cookies and cross-context behavioral advertising cookies, these cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to users based on their interests and browsing behavior. These cookies collect information about a user's online activities (including by uniquely identifying the user and/or user’s browser and device), such as the websites they visit, the pages they view, and the links they click. This data can then be used to create a profile of the user's interests, which allows advertisers to display targeted ads that are more likely to be of interest to the individual. They are also used to limit the number of times an ad is shown and to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. Targeting cookies can also be used for retargeting, where ads for previously viewed products or services follow the user across different websites. The purpose of targeting cookies is to improve the effectiveness of online advertising by showing users ads that are more aligned with their preferences and interests.
Users may opt-out of cookies as described in the cookie banner that appears when first visiting our Site. Additionally, users can opt-out of marketing cookies by using a browser or plug-in that supports Do Not Track (“DNT”) or Global Privacy Control (“GPC”), by submitting an opt-out request (see this Privacy Policy for more info), or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
