Third Party Advertisers, Use
of Web Beacons or GIF Files
This Website
may contain electronic
images known as Web beacons,
sometimes also called
single-pixel gifs, that
allow us to count users who
have visited those pages and
to deliver co-branded
services. We may include Web
beacons in promotional
e-mail messages or
newsletters in order to
determine whether messages
have been opened and acted
upon. Some of these Web
beacons may be placed by
third party service
providers to help determine
the effectiveness of our
advertising campaigns or
email communications. These
Web beacons may be used by
these service providers to
place a persistent cookie on
your computer. This allows
the service provider to
recognize your computer each
time you visit certain pages
or emails and compile
anonymous information in
relation to those page
views, which in turn enables
us and our service providers
to learn which
advertisements and emails
bring you to our website and
how you use the site. This
information in addition to
the web searches you make
while visiting this website
and your web surfing
behavior on this site and
other websites you may visit
is used to show you
