Cookies
Cookies are small files that store information on your computer, TV, mobile phone or other device. They
enable the entity that put the cookie on your device to recognize you across different websites,
services, devices, and/or browsing sessions. Cookies serve many useful purposes. For example:
- Cookies can remember your sign-in credentials so you don’t have to enter those credentials each time
you log on to a service.
- Cookies help us and third parties understand which parts of our Services are the most popular
because they help us to see which pages and features visitors are accessing and how much time they
are spending on the pages. By studying this kind of information, we are better able to adapt the
Services and provide you with a better experience.
- Cookies help us and third parties understand which ads you have seen so that you don’t receive the
same ad each time you access a Service.
- Cookies help us and third parties provide you with relevant content and advertising by collecting
information about your use of our Services and other websites and apps.

We, along with certain third parties, may use other kinds of local storage technologies, such as Local
Shared Objects (also referred to as “Flash cookies”) and HTML5 local storage, in connection with our
Services. These technologies are similar to the cookies discussed above in that they are stored on your
device and can be used to store certain information about your activities and preferences. However,
these technologies may make use of different parts of your device from standard cookies, and so you
might not be able to control them using standard browser tools and settings.
Beacons
We, along with certain third parties, also may use technologies called beacons (or “pixels”) that
communicate information from your device to a server. Beacons can be embedded in online content, videos,
and emails, and can allow a server to read certain types of information from your device, know when you
have viewed particular content or a particular email message, determine the time and date on which you
viewed the beacon, and the IP address of your device. We and certain third parties use beacons for a
variety of purposes, including to analyze the use of our Services and (in conjunction with cookies) to
provide content and ads that are more relevant to you.

technologies, beacons and other information on your devices. You also consent to the access of such
cookies, local storage technologies, beacons and information by us and by the third parties
mentioned above.
Do Not Track Signals and Similar Mechanisms
Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates,
although web browsers incorporate and activate this functionality in different ways, and it is not
always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted. There currently is disagreement,
including among participants in the leading Internet standards-setting organization, concerning what, if
anything, websites should do when they receive such signals. We currently does not take action in
response to these signals, but, if and when a standard is established and accepted, we may reassess how
to respond to these signals.
