These technologies may also be used to analyze how our users interact with content on the Site. We describe some of these technologies below, as well as your choices related to these tracking technologies.
Cookies. We use “cookies”, “web beacons” or other common tracking technologies. Cookies are text files placed in your computer’s browser to store your preferences.
- We, and our third party service providers, use cookies or other common tracking technologies to understand site and Internet usage and to improve or customize the content on the Site.

- We, and our third party service providers, use cookies or other common tracking technologies to offer you content, offerings, or services that may be of interest to you.

For LSOs utilized by Adobe Flash you can access your Flash management tools from Adobe’s website. In addition, some, but not all browsers, provide the ability to remove LSOs, sometimes within cookie and privacy settings.
Disabling Cookies. Most web browsers are set up to accept cookies. You may be able to set your browser to warn you before accepting certain cookies or to refuse certain cookies. However, if you disable the use of cookies in your web browser, some features of the Site may be difficult to use or inoperable.
