What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which
often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a
Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for
permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive
specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its
own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow
it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a
Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not
the cookies sent to you by other sites. Browsers are usually
set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to
receive cookies, you may alter the configuration of your
browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser
refuse cookies, it is possible that some areas of our site will
not function as effectively when viewed by the users. A cookie
cannot retrieve any other data from your hard drive or pass on
computer viruses.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from
Cookies?

uses cookies to differentiate you from other users. In some
cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in
more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction
with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the
aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which
parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather
feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve
our clients. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal
information about you and we do not intentionally store any
personal information that your browser provided to us in your
