We and our third-party service providers use cookies, pixels, java script, and other mechanisms to automatically collect information browsing, activity, device and similar information within our Site and Services. We use this information to, for example, analyze and understand how users access and use the Services, how they interact with others through our Services, as well to identify and resolve bugs and errors in our Services and to assess secure, protect, optimize and improve the performance of our Services.

Cookies. Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your device’s hard drive through the Site and Services for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our Services, while others allow us to track your activities in our Services, support the security and performance of the Services, or allow us to track activity and usage data within Service. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can edit your browser options to block them in the future. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie or how to disable cookies altogether. 

Pixel Tags. Pixel tags (sometime called web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your device, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on web pages and online content. We may use these, in connection with our Site and Services to, among other things, track the activities of Site visitors, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Site usage. We and our third-party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers, to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.

Third-Party Analytics. We may use non-affiliated analytics companies, for example Google Analytics (see privacy policy and opt-out), to evaluate use of our Services. We use these tools to help us understand use of, and to improve, our Services, performance, ad campaigns, and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects (LSOs), to perform their services. 

Advertising and Targeting. As described above, we work with third parties, such as third-party ad networks, analytics and measurement services and other third-party ad companies to manage our advertising on third-party sites and online services. We and these third-party ad companies may use cookies, pixels tags, and other tools (which we may refer to collectively as “targeting cookies”) to collect activity information within our Services (as well as on third-party sites and services), as well as IP address, location information, unique ID, cookie and advertising IDs, and other identifiers, as well as browsing information. We and these third-party ad companies use this information to provide you more relevant ads and content within our Services and other online services and on third-party sites and apps, and to evaluate the success of such ads and content. 

Social Media. Our website may include social media features, such as LinkedIn widgets. These features may collect electronic and other internet activity information, such as your IP address and which page you are visiting on our website or mobile application. These widgets may set a cookie or utilize other tracking technologies to accomplish this. Social media features and widgets are hosted by a third party and your interactions with those features are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them.

Additional choices. You can review or change your preferences for most cookies on our website as follows:

• Industry      ad choice programs. You can control how participating third-party ad companies use the information      that they collect about your visits to our websites and those of third      parties, in order to display more relevant targeted advertising to you. To      obtain more information and opt out of receiving targeted ads from participating third-party ad networks go to: http://aboutads.info/choices.  Please note that opting out of participating ad networks does not opt you      out of being served advertising. You may continue to receive generic or contextual ads on our Services. You may also continue to receive targeted ads on other websites from companies that do not participate in this      program.
• Browser settings      and controls. If you wish to prevent cookies from tracking      your activity on our website or visits across multiple websites, you can      set your browser to block certain cookies or notify you when a cookie is      set. The Help portion of the      toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your device from  accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive  a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Site      and Services who disable cookies will be able to browse the Site, but some      features may not function.
