What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a

Cookies are small
pieces of data that
are stored by a
user’s Web browser
on the user’s hard
drive. Cookies can
remember what
information a user
accesses on one Web
page to simplify
subsequent
interactions with
that Web site by the
same user or to use
the information to
streamline the
user’s transactions
on related Web

easier for a user to
move from Web page
to Web page and to

personalized.
How Do We Use

to count how many
people visit our Web
site and evaluate
our Web site’s
visitor capacity. We
do not use these

other such responses
to you.

take measures to

we cannot make any
representations
about the practices

these companies.

Partners

strategic marketing
alliances or
