We use third-party web analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to collect and analyze usage information through cookies and similar tools. This information helps us improve our services, prevent fraud, and provide certain features to you. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. If you receive email from us, we may use tracking pixels to capture data such as when you open our message or click on links or banners our email contains. This data allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our communications and marketing campaigns.

For information about your choices regarding tailored advertising, please see Your Rights & Choices below.

Notice Concerning Do Not Track

Some web browsers have a Do Not Track (DNT) feature that allows users to express their preference regarding tracking by websites they visit. We do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals. However, we provide you with various opt-out mechanisms to control the information collected on our website for third-party purposes. Learn more about Do Not Track.
