Use of Cookies
Q the Experience websites may use “cookies” to enable you to sign in to our services and to help personalize your Online experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a Web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. Generally, cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
Q the Experience websites may use cookies to store your preferences and other information on your computer in order to save you time by eliminating the need to repeatedly enter the same information and to display your personalized content and appropriate advertising on your later visits to these sites.
When you sign in to a site using your credentials, Q the Experience stores your unique ID number, and the time you signed in, in an encrypted cookie on your hard disk. This cookie allows you to move from page to page at the site without having to sign in again on each page. The cookies are used to improve the “sign in” experience. For example, your e-mail address may be stored in a cookie that will remain on your computer after you sign out. This cookie allows your e-mail address to be pre-populated, so that you will only need to type your password the next time you sign in.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to sign in or use other interactive features of Q the Experience sites and services that depend on cookies.
Controlling “Spam” or Unsolicited E-mail
Q the Experience is concerned about controlling unsolicited commercial e-mail, or “spam.” Q the Experience will not sell, lease or rent its e-mail subscriber lists to third parties. While Q the Experience continues to actively review and implement new technology, such as expanded filtering features, there is no currently available technology that will totally prevent the sending and receiving of unsolicited e-mail.
Use of Third Party Ad Networks
The majority of the online banner advertisements you see on Q the Experience Web pages are displayed by Q the Experience. However, we may allow other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to display advertisements on Q the Experience Web pages. Some of these ad networks may place a persistent cookie on your computer in order to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement. In this way, ad networks may compile information about where you, or others who are using your computer, saw their advertisements and determine which ads are clicked on. This information allows an ad network to deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. Q the Experience does not have access to the cookies that may be placed by the third-party ad servers or ad networks.
Links
Our website(s) may include links to other websites which do not fall under our supervision. We cannot accept any responsibility for the protection of privacy or the content of these websites, but we offer these links to make it easier for our visitors to find more information about specific subjects.
