Your consent

By continuing to use and navigate our websites, services, applications, tools, or messages, you consent to our use of cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies (including third-party cookies) as described here and in our information security policy. If you do not accept these technologies in connection with your visit to or use of our websites, services, applications, tools, or messages, you may stop visiting and using our website and third-party sites.

What are cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies?

These technologies are small data files placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone, or other device (collectively "device") that let us record information when you visit or interact with our websites, services, applications, messages, and other tools. Although they are often referred to collectively as "cookies," each technology works differently, as explained below:

Cookie:These are small text files (usually made up of letters and numbers) placed in your browser's or device's storage when you visit a website or view a message. Cookies let a website recognize a particular device or browser. There are several types of cookie:

  • Session cookiesexpire at the end of your browser session and let us associate your activity within that particular session.
  • Persistent cookiesstored on your device between browser sessions, allowing us to remember your preferences or activity across multiple sites.
  • First-party cookiesare cookies set by the website a user is visiting at the time, in order to persist your settings (for example while you are on our website).
  • Third-party cookiesset in your browser by a website or domain other than the one you are visiting. If a user visits a website and another party sets a cookie through that site, it is a third-party cookie.

When you visit a website that uses cookies, you may be asked to fill in a form providing personal information such as your name, email address, and preferences. That information is packaged into a cookie and sent to your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and so on), which stores it for later use. The next time you visit the same site, your browser sends the cookie to the server. The message is sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from it.

Web beacons:These small files (also called "image tags", "pixels", or "script tags") may be loaded on our websites, applications, and tools to work alongside cookies to identify our users and to provide anonymized data based on their behavior.

Equivalent technologies:Technologies that store information in your browser or on your device using locally shared objects or local storage, such as flash cookies, HTML5 cookies, and other web application methods. These technologies may operate across all of your browsers and in some cases may not be fully controllable from the browser, requiring management directly through installed applications or your device. We do not use these technologies to store information for the purpose of targeting advertising to you, whether on our websites or elsewhere.

Which cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies do we use, and for what purposes?

Our cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies serve a range of purposes, but all of them are necessary for our websites, services, applications, tools, or messages to function, help us improve performance or provide additional equivalent functionality, or support relevant and targeted advertising. They fall into the following categories:

Necessary:"Necessary" cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies let you move around the site and use essential features such as secure areas and the shopping cart. Without these technologies, we could not provide the services you have requested. Please note that these technologies do not collect any information about you that could be used for marketing or to record where you have been on the internet. Accepting these technologies is a condition of using our websites, services, applications, tools, or messages; if you block them from loading, we cannot guarantee how your session or its internal security will behave during your visit.

Performance:"Performance" cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies collect information about how you use our website (for example which pages you visit and whether you encounter any errors). These cookies do not collect any information that could identify you, and are used only to help us improve how our website works, understand what interests our users, and measure content effectiveness by providing anonymous statistics and data about how our website is used. Accepting these technologies is a condition of using our websites, services, applications, tools, or messages; if you block them from loading, we cannot guarantee how your session or its internal security will behave during your visit.

Functional:"Functional" cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies are used to provide services or to remember settings that improve your visit.

Advertising:First-party or third-party "Advertising" cookies and web beacons may be placed by our websites, applications, or tools to deliver content, including product advertising relevant to your specific interests, on our websites or on third-party websites. These technologies let us understand how effective our advertising is and improve how relevant the content delivered to our users is.

We also use third-party service providers to help us deliver equivalent functionality, which means providers we authorize may also place cookies, web beacons, and equivalent technologies on your device through our services (third-party cookies). Those components may also collect information that helps them identify your device, such as an IP address or other unique or device identifiers.
