What about other tracking technologies?

In addition to cookies, we use other tracking technologies like tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is an HTML code snippet which is loaded when a user visits a website or opens an email. It is useful for tracking user behavior and conversions. We use tracking pixels to monitor the traffic patterns of our users, to understand if you have clicked on an ad displayed on a third-party website, improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair this functionality. Personal information collected using tracking pixels is stored and analyzed by us to optimize the delivery of our newsletters and emails, and to improve the relevance of the distributed content. Many email clients and web browsers support functionality to opt-out or prevent the use of these tracking mechanisms.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences via the cookie consent tool on our Websites and by following the appropriate opt-out links provided in the cookie table above. You can set or amend your Internet browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Websites, though your access to some functionality and areas of our Websites may be restricted. Please visit your browser’s help menu for information on how to opt-out of cookies. Tracking pixels may be refused by configuring the settings on your email client or web browser to prevent web beacons from being activated. Please refer to the documentation for your particular web browser, email client or device for additional information on whether it is supported and how to configure this setting. For additional information regarding our privacy practices and how we protect your personal information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

A special note on Do-Not-Track signals

Modern web browsers and mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature; however, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. Therefore, we do not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals with respect to our Websites. If a universal standard for responding to DNT signals is adopted in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy to reflect such practices.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please review this Cookie Policy to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies and your choices.
