5. How can you block Cookies and other Tracking Technologies and what are your options?
In order to change your Cookie preferences, you can (i) change your Cookie browser settings as instructed below (How to Block Cookies and other Tracking Technologies), or (ii) click on the Cookie Preferences link in the footer of our Site.
How to Block Cookies and other Tracking Technologies: You can block Cookies and other Tracking Technologies from being downloaded onto your device by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new Cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new Cookie, and how to disable existing Cookies. You can find out how to do this for your particular browser by clicking “help” on your browser's menu or by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org. Please note, however, that without Cookies you may not be able to access or take full advantage of our Site. Most browsers allow users to use a “private mode” by which Cookies are deleted after your website visit. Please read the help section of your browser to learn more about how to activate the “private mode.” You could still visit our Site if your browser is in “private mode”; however, the user experience may not be optimal, and some features may not work.
If you want to remove previously stored Cookies, you can manually delete the Cookies at any time. However, this will not prevent the Site from placing further Cookies on your device unless and until you adjust your browser setting as described above.
Global Privacy Control (GPC): Some web browsers and browser extensions offer a feature known as Global Privacy Control (GPC), which can communicate a user’s privacy preferences to websites. Where required by applicable law and where technically feasible, we recognize and process GPC signals with respect to Cookies and other Tracking Technologies deployed through our Site. When a valid GPC signal is received and can be processed by our Site, we use our cookie consent tool to disable or limit Cookies and other Tracking Technologies associated with targeted advertising for the browser and device from which the signal is transmitted. Because GPC is transmitted through a browser, its effect is generally limited to the browser-based collection and use of information through our Site. To learn more about other privacy choices that may be available to you, please review our Privacy Policy.
More Information about Interest-Based Advertising: You can find more information about Cookies, behavioral advertising, and online privacy at www.allaboutcookies.org. For Third Party websites and applications that participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), you can exercise your choice to opt out of interest-based advertising at http://optout.aboutads.info. The Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) also offers tools and resources to help you adjust your privacy settings and request opt outs of certain kinds of advertising, which are available at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices. Certain types of mobile devices have an identifier that provides organizations with the ability to serve targeted advertising directly to a specific mobile device, and you may (depending on the device) be able to limit advertising, reset the advertising identifier, and turn off your device’s tracking features within your device’s settings.
