We also gather information about how you navigate through our website or advertisements, including content served by us or on our behalf on other websites. This includes information gathered with “cookies” and/or other online tools such as “pixel tags” which may enable us to re-market to website visitors whether or not they give us personally identifiable information. As technology evolves, we may use similar tools to measure such activity. More information about cookies and pixel tags is provided below.

We may also use these tools to collect data about our email promotions. For example, we may receive a confirmation when you open email from us. We may also contract with other companies who use cookies or other online tools such as pixel tags to measure the performance of a marketing effort on our behalf.

We provide these companies with only the information they need to perform their services and work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected. These companies are prohibited from using this information for their own marketing purposes and from sharing this information with anyone other than us.

We may be forced to disclose specific information upon governmental request, in response to a court order, or when required by law to do so. We may also disclose such information where we believe it is reasonably necessary to protect us, our customers, and others from financial or physical harm. We may also share information with companies assisting in fraud protection or investigation, but we do not provide information to these agencies or companies for marketing or commercial purposes.
