Web beacons (small graphic images or other programming code, also known as “pixel tags,” “1×1 GIFs,” or “clear GIFs”) may be included in our web pages and email messages. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a web page or email can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, to count visitors to the Websites, to monitor how users navigate the Websites, to count how many emails that were sent were actually opened or to count how many particular links were actually viewed.

By Third Parties.  The Websites may contain integration with social networks and other platforms. For example, the Websites may contain buttons that direct users to our social networking pages (such as Facebook or Twitter) or enabling you to “like” or “share” the Websites’ content to other online services.
