- Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Website, such as information about the links you click on;
- ETag, or entity tag. An ETag, or entity tag, is a feature of the cache in browsers. It is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. It is one of several mechanisms that HTTP provides for web cache validation. These allow websites to be more efficient and not serve content again, when data is already cached and ready to view;

Google Analytics
We may use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”) for various purposes, including potentially to analyze traffic on our Website, to grow our business, to improve and develop our services, to monitor and analyze use of our services, to aid our technical administration, to increase the functionality and user-friendliness of our services, and to verify that users have the authorization needed for us to process their request.

You may be able to opt out of the use of Google Analytics by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
Behavioral Advertising
We may use your personal information to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may be of interest to you. For more information about how targeted advertising works, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s (“NAI”) educational page at http://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/how-does-it-work.
Do Not Track
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a concept promoted by certain regulatory authorities and industry groups for development and implementation of a mechanism that would allow internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites. Currently, various browsers (including Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari) offer a DNT option that allows a user to set a preference in the browser to not have his/her activities on the internet tracked. You can usually access your browser’s DNT option in your browser’s preferences. When a user’s browser is set to DNT, some cookies and other tracking technologies may become inactive, depending on how the website visited responds to DNT browser settings. If that occurs, the website visited will not recognize you upon return to that website, save your passwords or user names, and some other features of a website may become unavailable or not function properly.
Given the lack of a standard in the industry or any clear regulatory guidance on this issue, our Website may not always comply with DNT signals from your browser at this time.
Third-Party Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Some content or applications, including advertisements, on the Website may be served by third-parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use our Website. The information they collect may be associated with your personal information or they may collect information, including personal information, about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.
