We may automatically collect certain information when you visit our sites or use our applications.

A cookie (or “locally shared object”) is a data file placed on your device when you visit our site. Your browser, or other software (including Adobe Flash), may allow you to reject or remove cookies, but if you do so, some features of our sites may not work properly, and we may not be able to remember your preferences the next time that you visit.

When you use our mobile applications or visit our sites from a mobile device, like a smartphone, we may also collect additional information from your device, including your location, device identifier, and information about your mobile network.
Analytics Services and Targeted Ads
We use third-party analytics services, including, but not necessarily limited to, Google Analytics. These services may track details about your online activities over time and across different sites.

We also use the information that we collect to process your account registration and to enable you to use certain site features and participate in online sweepstakes, contests or other promotions. We may also use the information that we collect to customize your experience on our sites or applications, to provide customer support, to enforce our Terms of Use and to provide you with content or advertisements that may be of interest to you, as described in the section above on Analytics Services and Targeted Ads.
How and When We Share Information with Third Parties
We may share the information that we collect with third parties for a variety of purposes. For example, we may share information with service providers who assist us in our business operations. We may also share information where required by law or to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, subpoena, government request or other legal process. We may also share information with third parties, including law enforcement, to protect our sites and applications and to enforce our Terms of Use. We also reserve the right to share the information that we collect with our subsidiaries and affiliates and with any subsequent owner in the event of a merger, consolidation, sale of our assets or other change in our business.
Co-Branded Areas
We may provide certain parts of our sites and applications in association with third parties, such as promotional partners. These “co-branded areas” will identify the third party. If you choose to use these co-branded areas, we may share your information with the identified third party, and that third party may also collect information from you, in addition to the information that we collect, as described above. You should review the privacy policies of those identified third parties to understand how they collect and use information.
Sweepstakes, Contests and Promotions
We may offer sweepstakes, contests, and other promotions on our sites and applications, and these activities may require specific registration. By participating in these activities, you are agreeing to the official rules that govern them, and those rules may require that you allow information, including your photo, likeness or other details, to be shared with third parties, made public or used for advertising, marketing or other promotional purposes. You should review the official rules regarding information collection and sharing for each of these activities before you choose to participate.
Direct Marketing Partners and Your Choices
We may share the information that we collect, including your name, e-mail address, mailing address, or other details, with third parties for direct marketing purposes.

Third-Party Sites & Services
Interactions with Other Sites and Services
Our sites and applications may allow you to use your account from other online services, including social media providers like Facebook and Google. If you use accounts from other services on our sites or applications, those third parties may share information about you with us, and we may share information that we collect with them. Our sites and applications may also include features from third parties that allow you to interact with other online services, including social media. For example, we may use third parties to allow you to send messages or tweets or to make postings on social media sites, like Facebook. If you use these features, then we may share information about you with those third parties, and they may collect additional information. You should review the privacy policies for such third parties to understand how they collect and use information.
Links to Third-Party Sites
Our sites and applications may include links to third-party websites or other online services. We are not responsible for these other sites and services, and they may collect and use information about you. You should review the privacy policies for such third parties before using their sites or services to understand how they collect and use information.
Third-Party Tracking and Do Not Track
Third parties may use tracking technologies in connection with our sites and applications, which may include the collection of information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to these third-party technologies because we may not control them and we are not responsible for them. Do Not Track is a technology that enables users to opt out of tracking by websites they do not visit. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to Do Not Track technology.
We also collect non-personally identifiable information via Google advertising cookies and anonymous identifiers, which includes information about user demographic and interest categories. You may opt out of this practice by clicking here or by visiting Google Analytics’ currently available opt-outs page.
We use third-party service providers to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet and sometimes on this site, as well as to conduct direct email re-marketing. They may collect information about your visits to our website, and your interaction with our products and services. They may also use information about your visits to this and other websites to target advertisements for goods and services. This information is collected through the use of a pixel tag, which is industry standard technology used by most major websites. No personally identifiable information is given to our service providers in this process. If you would like more information about the practice of using pixel tags and to know your choices about not having this information used by our third party service providers, please click here. You can also read more about online marketing practices and the technologies that support them by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s website by clicking here.

How We Protect Your Information
We use commercially reasonable and industry standard security technologies and safeguards to protect the information that we collect and use. For example, we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for our registration and ordering functions, and we utilize a PCI-certified service provider to process credit card payments. We also expect our service providers to protect information in the same manner. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed 100% secure. Please note that we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us.
