What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique
identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store this
file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie
to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only
permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other
sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you
may alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse
cookies, it is possible that some areas of our site will not function as effectively when viewed by the
users.A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from
your hard drive or pass on computer viruses.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from
Cookies?
As you visit and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies to differentiate you
from other users. In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in more than is
necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the
aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us
gather feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our clients. Cookies do not allow us to
gather any personal information about you and we do not intentionally store any personal information that
your browser provided to us in your cookies.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet.
Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses
are automatically collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile data known as traffic data
so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.

physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect
online.
