We engage in interest-based advertising.
We and our partners display interest-based advertising using information gathered about you over time across multiple websites or other platforms (including websites and apps). Third parties, including advertising and analytics companies, set their own cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Sites. We and third parties might link information automatically through cookies and other tracking technologies to your name or email address or other information, including past purchases made offline or online.
Interest-based advertising or “online behavioral advertising” includes ads served to you after you leave our website, encouraging you to return. They also include ads we think are relevant based on your browsing habits or online activities. These ads might be served on third-party websites or on apps. They might also be served in emails. We might serve these ads, or third parties may serve ads. They might be about our products or other companies’ products.

For information on opting out from certain third party uses of your information for online advertising purposes please see the section below.
You can opt-out of online behavioral advertising.
While we may use a variety of service providers to perform advertising and analytics services, some of these companies are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising, which provides consumers with the ability to opt-out of having their online behavior recorded and used for advertising purposes. You can visit Network Advertising.org which provides information about targeting advertising and the 'opt-out' procedures of NAI members. You may also visit About Ads.info which provides information about targeted advertising and offers an “opt-out” by participating companies in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program. You may also learn more and make choices about interest-based advertisements from participating third parties in jurisdictions outside of the United States at the Canadian DAA choice page at Your Ad Choices.ca choices and the European DAA online choice page at Your Online Choices.eu and the Australian DAA online choices page at Your Online Choices.au.
For mobile apps, you may be able to limit certain advertising practices using the settings on your phone, tablet, or other mobile device. Also, on most mobile devices, you can install the DAA’s AppChoices app to make choices about cross-app interest-based advertisements from participating parties. You may review additional information on opting out of mobile devices at Network Advertising.org.
If you are a California resident, please see our “California Privacy Notice” regarding additional rights you may have.
Please note that opting out through these mechanisms does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads while online.
