F. Cookies; Pixel Tracking

i. When you browse the website, a temporary cookie is placed on your computer that helps Schweinkram collect information to help us better understand our visitors’ interests and to better serve you.

What are Cookies?

“Cookies” are small pieces of information that are stored by your web browser’s software on your computer’s hard drive or temporarily in your computer’s memory. The use of cookies is an industry-standard and it enhances the user experience and your access to information on our website. Cookies enable Schweinkram to recognize you and personalize your viewing experience on the website.

Schweinkram uses cookies for a variety of purposes including, but not limited to, recognizing user access (or logon) privileges to the website (such as to store user names and other information supplied at registration), track website usage and traffic patterns, provide information and advertisements for goods or services that we think may interest you based on your interest in and use of the website, estimate the number of users who visit and use the website, and track such usage patterns. Although most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, you may be able to decline the placement of a cookie on your hard drive by using the appropriate feature(s) of your web browser software (if available) to delete the cookie. Please note, however, that certain areas or features of the website will not function properly if your web browser does not accept cookies.

ii. In addition to using cookies, the website may employ “pixel tracking”, a common process which may be used in connection with advertisements on other sites. Pixel tracking involves the use of pixel tags that are not visible to the user and consist of a few lines of computer code. Pixel tracking measures the effectiveness of advertisements and compiles aggregate and specific usage statistics. A “pixel tag” is placed on certain pages of websites that are used to track an individual user’s activity. we may access these pixel tags to identify activity and interests that may allow us to better match our goods, services, and other offers with your interests and needs. For example, if you visit our website from an advertisement on another website, the pixel tag will allow the advertiser to track that its advertisement brought you to the website.

If you visit our website, and we link you to another website, we may also be able to determine that you were sent to and/or transacted with a third party website. This data is collected for use in our marketing and research.
