You may, however, be able to change your browser settings to cause your browser to refuse third-party cookies or to indicate when a third-party cookie is being sent. Pixel Tags (also called web beacons or clear GIFs) are invisible 1 x 1 pixels that are placed on webpages that use this technology for marketing and measurement purposes. When you access these webpages, pixel tags generate a generic notice of the visit. Pixel tags can be used with cookies or alone. When used with cookies, pixel tags can track activity on a site by a particular device and provide relevant online advertising to you. When you turn off cookies or have opted out of cookies, pixel tags simply detect a unique website visit and how you interacted with the advertising but do not track an individual to provide relevant online advertising.
We (including our service providers working on our behalf) utilize cookies to collect information about your activity, or activity on devices associated with you, on our Site. Cookies can help us to provide you with a more relevant experience when you browse the Site.

However, we do not allow the third party to use the cookies for any purpose other than those listed above.
Manage cookies. Some people prefer not to allow cookies, which is why most browsers give you the ability to manage cookies to suit you. In some browsers you can set up rules to manage cookies on a siteby-site basis, giving you more fine-grained control over your privacy.
