   1. A persistent cookie remains stored on Your browser until its expiry date or until deleted by You.

Cookies are pieces of electronic information sent by Us for record-keeping purposes when You log onto Our Website. These are placed on Your computer’s hard drive and enable Us to recognise You as a user when You next visit.
2. Cookies types:
   1. Persistent cookies:Persistent cookies remain on Your computer or device after You close Your browser or turn off Your computer. These cookies are stored for a specified period and are used to recognise You when You return to Our Site. They help Us remember Your preferences, improve Your user experience, and deliver content or advertisements relevant to Your interests. We may use persistent cookies to record details such as Your login information (where applicable) so that You do not need to re-enter it each time You visit. You may delete these cookies manually by adjusting Your browser settings.
   2. Session Cookies:These exist only during an online session. They disappear from your computer when You close Your browser or turn off Your computer. We use session cookies to allow Our systems to uniquely identify You during a session or while You are logged into the Site. This allows Us to process Your online transactions and requests and verify Your identity after You have logged in and as You move through Our Site.
   3. Persistent cookiesWe may also engage third parties to track and analyse both non-personally identifiable and personally identifiable Site data. We use the data collected by such third parties to help Us administer and improve the quality of the Site and to analyse Site usage.

The Help section of the toolbar on most browsers will tell You how to prevent Your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify You when You receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to Our Site who disable cookies will be able to browse certain areas of the Site, but some features may not function properly.

Clear GIFs, Pixel Tags, and Other Technologies

1. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on Your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use clear GIFs (also known as web beacons, web bugs, or pixel tags) in connection with Our Site to, among other things, track the activities of Site visitors, help Us manage content, and compile statistics about Site usage. We and Our third-party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to Our customers to help Us track email response rates, identify when Our emails are viewed, and track whether Our emails are forwarded.

Third-Party Analytics

1. We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate the usage of Our Site. We may also use other analytic tools to evaluate Our Services. We use these tools to help Us improve Our Services, performance, and user experience. We do not share Your Personal Information with these third parties.
