​
Information We Collect
Information We Obtain About You
We may obtain personal information about you through various Channels as described above. The types of personal information we obtain include:
-
Contact information (such as your name, email, postal address and telephone number);

-
other personal information contained in content you submit to us.
Through the Online Channels, you may be able to place orders for products or services using methods of payment that are provided by third parties. Such options provided by third parties have separate privacy policies that govern the use of personal information collected by them.
Information We Obtain by Automated Means
When you interact with our Online Channels, we obtain certain information by automated means, such as cookies, web server logs, web beacons, and other technologies. A “cookie” is a small text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and their cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server.
We use these automated technologies to collect information about your devices, browsing actions, and usage patterns. The information we obtain in this manner may include your device IP address, identifiers associated with your devices, types of devices connected to our services, web browser characteristics, device characteristics, language preferences, referring/exit pages, clickstream data, and dates and times of website visits. These technologies help us (1) remember your information so you will not have to re-enter it; (2) track and understand how you use and interact with our products and services; (3) tailor the Online Channels around your preferences; (4) measure the usability of our Online Channels and the effectiveness of our communications; (5) provide customer support; and (6) otherwise manage and enhance our Online Channels.
Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies or how to restrict or disable certain types of cookies. Please note, however, that without certain cookies you may not be able to use and enjoy all of the features of our Online Channels. For mobile devices, you can manage how your device and browser share certain device data by adjusting the privacy and security settings on your mobile device.

​
Online Tracking and Interest-Based Advertising
Through our Online Channels, we may collect information about your online activities to provide you with advertising about products and services tailored to your interests. You may see our ads on other websites or mobile apps because we may participate in advertising networks. Ad networks allow us to target our messaging to users considering demographic data, users’ inferred interests and browsing context. These networks track users’ online activities over time by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of cookies, web server logs, web beacons and other similar technologies. The networks use this information to show ads that may be tailored to individuals’ interests, to track users’ browsers or devices across multiple websites, and to build a profile of users’ online browsing activities. The information our ad networks may collect includes data about users’ visits to websites that participate in the relevant ad networks, such as the pages or ads viewed and the actions taken on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our Online Channels and on third-party websites that participate in the ad networks. This process also helps us track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. Our Online Channels are not designed to respond to “do not track” signals received from browsers. To learn how to opt out of ad network interest-based advertising please visit: https://aboutads.info/choices, https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/, and https://preferences-mgr.truste.com/.

​
Data Transfers
We may transfer your personal information to countries outside of the country in which the information originally was collected.
