Tracking Technologies
Like many other Internet websites, our Website may use “cookie” technology to measure Website activity and to customize information to your personal tastes. A “cookie” is an element of data that a website can send to your browser, which then stores the “cookie” on your hard drive. When you return to our Website we can recognize you from the information stored in the “cookie” and can tailor information to suit your individual preferences. The goal is to save you time and provide you with a more meaningful visit. You may set your browser to notify you when you receive a “cookie,” and to refuse or accept “cookies.” However, please note that if you choose not to accept “cookies” you will limit the functionality we can provide to you at our Website.
Social Media Widgets
Our Website includes social media features, such as the Facebook Like button, Twitter and Widgets, such as the “Share This” button or interactive mini-programs that run on our Website.
