6 Interest Based Advertising

6.1 We may collect information about your online activities on our Site and when you interact with our email advertisements to provide you with advertising about products and services tailored to your individual interests.

In addition, we work with third party service providers who use their own automated information collection and tracking technologies on our Site. This section of our Notice provides details and explains how to exercise your choices.
6.2 You may see certain ads on other websites because we work with advertising partners (including advertising networks) to engage in remarketing and retargeting activities. Our advertising partners allow us to target our messaging to users through demographic, interest-based and contextual means. These partners track your online activities over time and across websites by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of third-party cookies, web server logs, and web beacons. They use this information to show you advertisements that may be tailored to your individual interests.

This data collection takes place both on our Site and on third-party websites that participate in the ad networks, as well as when you interact with our email advertisements. This process also helps us track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. For example, we utilize certain of our ad partners’ targeted advertising services to show you our ads on other websites based on your prior visits to our Site and other online activity.
