Use of Cookies and Web Beacons
We may use “cookies” to enhance your online experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to store your preferences and other information on your computer in order to save you time by eliminating the need to repeatedly enter the same information and to display your personalized content on your later visits to the same site.

Shared Medium web pages may contain electronic images known as web beacons – sometimes called single-pixel gifs – that may be used to assist in delivering cookies and allow us to count users who have visited those pages. We may also include web beacons in electronic communications to you in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon. We may use web beacons to compile aggregated statistics about web site usage, such as how many visitors clicked on key elements (such as links or graphics) on a web page. We may share such statistics with other companies.
