We and our business partners may combine information that we have collected offline with information we collect online and across different devices over time.

Cookies: We use certain standard web measurement and tracking technologies such as “cookies,” web server logs, web beacons (also known as “action tags” or “one-pixel .gif files”), clear GIFs or other statistics programs.  A “cookie” is a tiny element of data that our Website sends to a user’s browser, which may then be stored on the user’s hard drive so that we can recognize the user’s computer or device when they return.  We do this on our Platform (including mobile apps) and in emails that we send to you. We collect information about users over time when you use this Platform (including mobile apps). We have third parties collect information this way, as well. Your browser may have an option that allows you to accept cookies, reject cookies, or receive notifications when a cookie is sent, but you should note that the use of restrictive browser settings may limit your use of the Platform.
