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.

As you visit and browse our Web site, the site 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

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.
