    The length of time a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a "persistent" or "session" cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing and persistent cookies until they expire or are deleted. Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device.
    You can control and manage cookies in various ways. Please note that removing or blocking cookies may negatively impact your user experience and parts of our website may no longer be fully accessible.
    Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies through your browser controls, often found in your browser's "Tools" or "Preferences" menu. Further information on how to change your browser settings or how to block, manage or filter cookies is available in your browser's help file or via sites such as: www.allaboutcookies.org.

To exercise your rights or opt-out of certain uses of your information by these parties, follow the instructions in the “Behavioral Advertising” section above.

    Please note that because there is no consistent industry understanding of how to respond to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not alter our data collection and use practices when we detect such a signal from your browser.
