Cookies may also be used to enhance your experience on our Sites (for example, by storing your username so you can log in easily, keeping you logged into the Site after you have provided your password, and storing the contents of your shopping cart as you browse), to collect general usage and aggregated statistical information about our Sites, detect and prevent fraud, and tailor the advertising you receive from us to your interests. A pixel tag (also known as a “clear GIF” or “web beacon”) is a tiny image that links webpages to web servers and their cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. We may use pixel tags to help us measure the effectiveness of our content by, for example, counting the number of individuals who visited our Sites or verifying whether you’ve opened one of our emails.

Additional Information:
- Use and Disclosure of Information: We do not “sell” or “share” (each as defined by the CCPA or other applicable law) or process the collected Information in connection with the programs above for targeted advertising purposes. We may disclose some of the collected Information to our service providers, including our email, text/SMS, and platform providers, solely to provide the services and benefits under such programs. We do not disclose the collected Information to data brokers.
- Program Partners: We do not maintain any program partners with respect to our programs above; thus, do not offer any benefits made available by program partners.
- Deletion of Information: If you exercise your right to delete your Information (as described above) and it impacts your ability to participate and/or receive any program benefits, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law. For example, an account may be required for participation in a program and an email address is required to create and maintain an account. If you decide to delete your email address associated with a particular program, you will no longer have a program account and we will no longer be able to provide you with any benefits under that program.
- Value of financial incentive: Generally, we do not assign monetary or other value to the Information we collect. However, in the context of a “financial incentive” under California law, the value of your Information to us is reasonably related to:(a) the purchase(s) you make as result of the offers or benefits that you receive by participating in the programs above (which may vary based on the product(s) you purchase and extent to which you use such offers or benefits on future purchase(s) from us); and (b) expenses we incur in connection with offering our programs (including but not limited to the costs associated with providing you the discounted or free products or services or other benefits as part of such programs).
