Usage Analysis and Google Ads

We use Web Beacons on our page and emails we send that may be invisible to the user. These beacons allow us to check if a user was able to view a certain page or email.

These beacons will NOT be used to access or collect any Personally-Identifying Information, they are simply a tool to track online usage, such as the date and time of a page visit or of an email visualization. Unlike Cookies, you may not decline a Web Beacon; however, by blocking all cookies they can lose their effect. We may use third-party vendors, Google included who use Non-Identifying-Information for usage and website activity studies, ad optimization and to better understand overall online activity on our site. There are options inside Google that can be installed in your browser in case you DO NOT want Google Analytics for Display Advertising or Display Network and can be set inside the user’s Google Ads Settings.
