Cookies

A cookie is a small amount of information downloaded to your computer or device when you visit the Site.

We use functional, performance, analytics, advertising, social media, and content-related cookies. Cookies help improve your experience by allowing the Site to remember actions and preferences, such as login information and region selection.

Cookies also help us understand how customers use the Site, including whether a visitor is new or returning.

The amount of time a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a session cookie or persistent cookie.

  • Session cookies generally remain until you stop browsing.
  • Persistent cookies remain until they expire or are deleted.
  • Many persistent cookies expire between 30 minutes and two years after being downloaded to your device.

You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking or removing cookies may affect your experience, and some parts of the Site may no longer function properly.

Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can change those settings through your browser’s Tools, Settings, or Preferences menu.

Additional information about managing cookies is available at:

Blocking cookies may not completely prevent information from being shared with advertising partners. To manage certain advertising uses of your information, follow the instructions in the Behavioral Advertising section above.
