Yes,
we may use cookies and related technologies, such as web beacons, to
collect information on our web site. A cookie is a text file that is
placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used
to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are
uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the
domain that issued the cookie to you. One of the primary purposes of
cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The
purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to

provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you
customized. A web beacon is a small graphic image that allows the party
that set the web beacon to monitor and collect certain information
about the viewer of the web page, web-based document or e-mail message,
such as the type of browser requesting the web beacon, the IP address
of the computer that the web beacon is sent to and the time the web
beacon was viewed. Web beacons can be very small and invisible to the
user, but, in general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web
page or e-mail, including HTML based content, can act as a web beacon.
We may use web beacons to count visitors to the web pages on the web
site or to monitor how our users navigate the web site, and we may
include web beacons in e-mail messages in order to count how many
messages sent were actually opened, acted upon or forwarded.
