More About Cookies
We and our third-party service providers automatically collect statistics from your browser, email interactions with us, or device on site usage patterns and your preferences through cookies, web logs, web beacons, and third-party service providers. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, device ID and type, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the operating system used by your device, date/time stamp, your mobile device's geographic location, and/or clickstream data.
When you visit or interact with our Websites, we (or our third-party service providers) may also use cookies and other types of web technologies to collect technical and usage information. We may use services provided by Google (including Google Analytics) and other data analytics companies to collect such information. We have activated the Google Signals functionality in Google Analytics. This updates existing Google Analytics features (advertising reports, remarketing, cross-device reports, and reports on interests and demographics) to provide aggregated and de-identified information about you, provided you have allowed personalized ads in your Google account. The reports that we receive from Google Analytics help us to better assess your behavior, preferences, and interests and optimize and adapt our services and products for you. This data collection only happens if you have allowed personalized advertising in your Google account. The data provided to us in the reports from Google is always aggregated and de-identified; we do not receive any information about particular individuals. You can manage or delete this data in your Google account. For more information on how Google uses your information please see "How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps", www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user's computer for record-keeping purposes. We may link the information we store in cookies to any Personal Information you submit while on our Websites. When we link the information we store in cookies to any Personal Information you submit while on our Websites, we may use that information to send you offers online, via email, or through the mail.
We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. We use session ID cookies to allow visitors to easily navigate during checkout and access their account information. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. We use a persistent cookie to welcome visitors returning to the site and to associate appropriate advertisements for our visitors.
Most Internet browsers allow you to disable, turn the cookie feature off, or reject cookies entirely by changing the settings on your Internet browser. Changing these settings may affect your ability to use certain features and functions of the Websites. Without a session ID cookie, your ability to complete a purchase and checkout will be limited.
If you are accessing our Websites on your mobile device, we may use mobile device IDs (the unique identifier assigned to a device by the manufacturer) or Advertising IDs (for iOS 6 and later), instead of cookies, to recognize you. We do this to store your preferences and track your use of our Websites. Unlike cookies, device IDs cannot be deleted, but Advertising IDs can be reset in 'Settings' on your iPhone.
You may interact with content on our Websites through social media plugins provided by Facebook, Twitter, Google and LinkedIn. We do not control the information that these companies collect when you choose to use their social media tools, whether through cookies or otherwise, nor do we control how these companies use any information they collect. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before interacting with these social media tools.

Security
We have implemented appropriate physical, electronic, and administrative procedures to safeguard and prevent unauthorized access to, maintain data security of, and correctly use the Personal Information we collect online.

All transactions occur through our secure server, protected by a DigiCert® Secure Site Certificate. That means that we use encryption to secure Personal Information sent from your computer to our servers. In addition, credit card numbers and other sensitive information are encrypted in our database(s) to provide a second layer of security for your Personal Information. When credit card information is transmitted online, we use Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) server software to prevent unauthorized access to the information. SSL is a highly sophisticated method of scrambling data as it travels from your computer to our Website servers. You can identify the secure connection by looking for a locked padlock icon at the lower portion of your browser window or on the left side of the URL in the address/search bar.

We do not respond to any such 'do not track' signals, as no one ‘do not track’ standard has gained consensus.
California law also requires website operators to disclose whether third parties may collect Personal Information about their users' online activities over time and across different websites when the users use the operator's website. We do not knowingly permit third parties to collect Personal Information about an individual user's online activities over time and across different websites when a user uses our Websites.

These third parties cannot collect any other Personal Information from our Websites unless you provide it to them directly.

You have the right to request that we delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see "Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights"), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies.
We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

- Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.
- We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
Authorized Agents use the same process as described above to submit requests. Authorized Agents must provide a power of attorney or other documentation demonstrating their authority to submit a request on your behalf, as well as providing sufficient information to verify your identity.
Please note that if you or your Authorized Agent submit a request over the phone, you (or your authorized agent) must also email your forms to [email protected] within 15 days of the request submission.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your California privacy rights under the CCPA. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
