Cookies

In order to identify you, we will occasionally use “cookies” or similar technologies. A cookie is a special text file that a website puts on your hard disk so that it can remember something about you later. Typically, a cookie records your preferences when using a particular site. You can set up your browser to inform you when cookies are set or to prevent cookies from being set, but users must agree to let cookies be saved for them to function. A website other than the one that set the cookie cannot read the cookie. We use cookies and similar technologies for a number of administrative purposes, for example, to store your preferences for certain kinds of information or to store a password so that you do not have to input it every time you visit our site. Most cookies last only through a single session, or visit (“session cookies”), but some that help us recognize you when you return to the site will remain for an extended period of time (“persistent cookies”). We use both types of cookies. You can set your browser to reject cookies, but some of the functions of our website may not work if you reject cookies.
