This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies in the course of our business, including through our websites that link to this Cookie Policy, such as WEBSITE[a].

Our website may store or retrieve information on your browser, mostly in the form of cookies. A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – places on the user’s device to remember information about the user, such as the user’s language preference or login information.

This type of cookie is set by us and is referred to as a “first-party cookies.” Our website uses first-party cookies primarily to make the website work as you expect it to. For example, we use the information we collect through first-party cookies to allow you to navigate between pages efficiently, analyze how well our website is performing, and understand the content that you spent the most time reviewing. In some cases, we use first-party cookies to store information that we use for targeted advertising.

We also incorporate cookies and similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, and web beacons, from outside our website’s domain (“third-party cookies”). Third-party cookies gather information to enable our vendors to provide a range of services to us, including targeted advertising and measuring the success of our advertising campaigns.

We make use of cookies under the following circumstances and for the following reasons:

  • Provide you with services available through the website and to enable you to use some of its features
  • Authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts
  • Identify if users have accepted the use of cookies on the website
  • Collect website traffic data about how visitors use our website to improve its features and offer a better experience
  • Understand and save visitor preferences for future visits, such as remembering your login details or language preference, to provide you with a more personal experience, or to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you use the website
  • Track your browsing habits to enable us to show advertising which is more likely to be of interest to you, including advertising by third parties on our website

Below is a detailed list of the categories of first- and third-party cookies we use on our website.

DAA and NAI

Many advertising companies that collect information for interest-based advertising are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), both of which maintain self-regulatory programs along with websites where people can opt out of interest-based advertising from their members. To opt-out of website interest-based advertising provided by each organization’s respective participating companies, visit the DAA’s opt-out portal available at http://optout.aboutads.info/, or visit the NAI’s opt-out portal available at http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1.

  • To opt-out of data collection for interest-based advertising across mobile applications by participating companies, download the DAA’s AppChoices mobile application opt-out offering found here: https://youradchoices.com/appchoices.

 

Non-Participant Opt-Out Options

  • Some of our vendors do not participate in the DAA or NAI self-regulatory programs for online behavioral advertising or have developed their own processes for allowing consumers to opt-out: https://branch.app.link/optout
  • Some devices and apps do not have access to web-based browser cookie opt-outs. To learn more about the advertising opt-outs provided by your mobile device’s operating system (like iOS and Android) or the device manufacture, click here.
