Cookies are then sent back to the originating website or mobile application on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie, to develop a record of the user’s online activity. 

Cookies also hold information to personalize and enhance your experience and to gather statistical data from our Sites, such as which pages are visited, the Internet provider's domain name and the addresses of the websites you visited immediately before coming to and immediately after leaving the Sites.  The information in the cookies lets us trace your "clickstream" activity (i.e., the paths taken by users of the Sites as they move from page to page) to enable us to better serve you and enhance our business by revealing which portions of the Sites are the most popular. We may also allow our affiliate and service providers and advertisers to serve cookies from the Sites to allow them to assist us in various activities such as doing analysis and research on the effectiveness of the Sites, content and advertising.
