Tracking Website Visitors. We may collect certain device information such as your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, pages browsed and date/time stamps. An IP address is the unique number automatically assigned to your computer when you log onto the Internet. As you enter our website, our server records your IP address and uses it to develop aggregated statistical analysis to help develop content and design of our site. The use of IP addresses may prevent malicious Internet users from masquerading as other users. We may use technology, such as embedded code and web beacons in emails, to assist with deliverability. 

Use of Cookies. A cookie is a piece of data stored in your web browser’s memory. We use cookies to serve you better, for example, by holding data about resources you want to order, to enable online polling and to compile statistics. We never store financial or credit card data within cookies. If you are uncomfortable with cookie technology you can disable cookies in your browser settings, but you will lose some website functionality, such as shopping cart information.
