Does NAE NAE’S WAY use “cookies” on its websites?

NAE NAE’S WAY uses “cookies” and pixels on some webpages. A cookie is a small piece of data that is stored on a visitor’s hard drive but does not contain any personal information itself. Cookies enhance a visitor’s experience by preventing the visitor from having to log in or provide information each time he or she revisits a NAE NAE’S WAY webpage and by customizing content based on a visitor’s interests. Pixels, often used in connection with cookies, are small blocks of code on webpages that perform functions such as allowing another server to measure viewing statistics for a webpage. Visitors can configure their browsers to refuse cookies or to be alerted when a site is attempting to send a cookie, although some NAE NAE’S WAY e-commerce pages will not function properly without accepting cookies. NAE NAE’S WAY and third-party vendors, including Google and Facebook, use cookies and pixels to show website visitors ads based on a visitor’s prior visits to the website as well as first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to report how ad impressions, other uses of ad services and interactions with them correspond to visits to our web site. These third-party vendors may also combine your e-mail information with other information they have access to, such as a mailing address, so that NAE NAE’S WAY may send relevant marketing offers to you via e-mail and direct mail. NAE NAE’S WAY also makes use of demographic information gathered via Google Analytics Demographics & Interests reports to gain a deeper understanding of the visitors to our website so that we can cater content to them accordingly while also tracking our success at reaching new populations of people. Visitors who want to opt out of Google’s use of cookies in these ways can do so by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page. Other options for managing the use of third-party cookies and pixels are available at www.aboutads.info/choices and Network Advertising Initiative. If you don’t want us to share information about you with our third-party vendors, you can also e-mail Amy@naenaesway.org to opt out. NAE NAE’S WAY also uses cookies to administer its websites, track visitor movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
