A cookie is a text file that is placed on your device by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages, register with the site, or purchase Services, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to this same Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use this site features that you customized. Generally speaking, cookies do not contain personal information from which you can be identified, unless you have furnished such information to the Website.

If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Services or Websites you visit.
