These technologies provide analytical information about the user experience and help us customize our marketing activities. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, these technologies are embedded invisibly on web pages.
We use cookies, pixels, and similar tracking technologies to help us understand how you interact with our websites, to keep our websites secure, and to provide advertisements that are relevant to you.

For example, if you view a product on our website, we may use that activity to show you an advertisement for that product, or a similar product, on other websites you visit. These ads are called interest-based or targeted ads.
We work with third parties, including advertising networks, to collect information about you, serve interest-based ads for us and others, and measure the ads’ effectiveness.

The advertisers and advertising networks’ use of tracking technologies and of the information collected through those technologies is covered by their own privacy notices.
c. Do Not Track
Do Not Track is a public-private initiative that has developed a “flag” or signal that an Internet user may activate in the user’s browser software to notify websites that the user does not wish to be “tracked” by third parties as defined by the initiative.
