What cookies/tracking technologies do we use?
A cookie is a small text file that’s placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit one of our websites. We, and some of our affiliates and third-party service providers, use a few different types of cookies. Some are persistent cookies (cookies that remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time) and some are session ID cookies (cookies that expire when you close your browser).
Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as “web/tracking beacons”, “pixels”, or “clear gifs” and local storage. These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies, such as when someone has visited our website or opened an email we have sent them. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

There are also cookies set by third parties across our website and services. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through our websites and services, such as advertising, interactive content and analytics.
