Cookies and Web Beacons
Cookies. We may send cookies, which are small pieces of data, to your web browser to facilitate your use of the Sites. Cookies help us deliver content specific to your interests and permit our servers to recall information from your prior visits to the Sites. We may use information collected from cookies in conjunction with other information we have collected from you. We do not, however, use cookies to access information on your computer or device. You can choose whether to accept cookies by adjusting the settings of your browser. If your browser is set to reject cookies, you may still enter the Sites, but you may not have full access to all areas within the Sites.
Web Beacons. Web beacons are small bits of code embedded in web pages or in emails. We may use web beacons to deliver or communicate with cookies, count users who have visited the Sites, and understand usage patterns. We also may include web beacons in emails to learn if messages have been opened, acted on, or forwarded to others. Web beacons cannot be declined when delivered via a regular web page. However, web beacons can be refused when delivered via email. If you do not wish to receive web beacons via email, you will need to disable HTML images or refuse HTML emails via your email software (e.g., by choosing to receive “text only” emails).
Web Analytics and Advertising Services Provided by Others
We may use web analytics providers to understand how visitors engage with our Sites and services, determine the popularity of certain content, and learn about your preferences with respect to the Sites. For example, we use Google Analytics, which employs cookies to analyze how visitors use and interact with the Sites. For more information on how Google Analytics uses your information and your choices with respect to that information, please review the Google Analytics Terms of Service, the Google Privacy Policy, and Google Analytics Support.
Do Not Track
Some web browsers incorporate a Do Not Track (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity and behavior tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, then the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option, and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many digital service operators, including SMITHPRO with respect to most of the Sites, do not recognize or respond to DNT signals. To learn more about DNT signals, you may wish to visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com/.
Third Parties
The Sites and other materials may contain references and/or links to third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for any third party’s data collection or privacy practices, and we have no control over what information third parties track or collect. Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Privacy Policy but instead is governed by the respective privacy policies of those third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies posted on those third-party websites for further information.
