Cookies Policy

Cookies are small data files that a website stores on your computer's hard drive or in random access memory when you are viewing the website. They keep a record of your preferences, making your subsequent visits to the Site more efficient. In certain cases, this information is only kept during the session and is deleted when you close your browser. In other cases, the information is stored on your hard drive and, upon your next visit to the Site, the cookies are used to recall such information. Cookies may store a variety of information, including, a unique user ID that can be used to track the pages of the Site you have visited and the number of times that you view a particular page or other item on the Site, login or registration information, your preferences and your purchase history, where available.

Note that our use of analytics and advertising cookies and other online tracking tools described in the present section of the Policy remains, notwithstanding other statements therein, subject to restrictions made under privacy laws applicable and effective in your jurisdiction. Some laws and regulations currently in force or soon to come into force may require that our use of tools enabling us to conduct profiling, geo location or identification of individuals browsing our Site be subject to users’ activation of those tools through an opt-in consent or otherwise.

We use cookies in order to improve the online experience of users of the Site. Your cookies help us keep track of your interests and, if you are a registered customer, your cookies allow us to recognize you when you return to the Site. If you register on the Site, your cookies also help us to monitor and maintain information about your use of the Site. If you have not registered with us, your cookies may be used in order to monitor and maintain non-personally identifiable information about your use of the Site.

The use of cookies is a common practice adopted by most major websites to better serve their clients. Most Internet browsers are designed to accept cookies, but they can be easily modified to warn you each time a cookie is being sent or to block all cookies. This is done through your browser settings; see your browser's help files for details on how to block cookies, how to know when you have received cookies and how to disable cookies completely. You should note, however, that without cookies, some of the Site's functions will not be available, and you will lose some of the benefits of the Site as, amongst other things, we will not recognize you as a past visitor or a registered user.

Composite tracking information generated by cookies may be shared with third parties for the purpose of documenting Site activity, traffic accounting, content analysis and other trends. Statistical information is not linked to any personal information and cannot identify any individual user of the Site. "Web beacons", also sometimes called "pixel tags", are small strings of code placed on a Web page or in an e-mail message for the purpose of transferring data.

We and the online marketing company or companies that we use to help manage our Internet business and communications employ cookies and Web beacons placed on the Site's pages to deliver our ads, to measure the effectiveness of our advertising, including our e-mail promotions, and to learn how visitors use the Site. The ad-serving technology uses non-personal information about your visits to the Site and the sites upon which we advertise to serve our ads to you. In the course of delivering our advertisements, a unique third-party cookie may be placed or recognized on your browser. The Web beacons used in conjunction with this third-party ad cookie enable our ad server to recognize a browser's cookie when a browser visits the Site and to learn which banner ads bring visitors to the Site. Your internet browser can, through the settings, be set up to warn you each time a cookie is being sent, to block all cookies or to disable cookies completely.
