2.  COOKIES AND HOW WE USE THEM

 

Cookies are small text files that may be placed on your web browser when you visit our website or when you view advertisements we have placed on another website. Cookies allow your browser to remember some specific information that the web server can later retrieve and use. When you quit your browser, some cookies are stored in your device’s memory, while some expire or disappear.

 

Cookies are used primarily for administrative purposes, to improve your experience with our website. Examples of this would include the use of cookies:

 

  • To administer our services;

  • To improve site security by “authenticating” you (i.e., verify that you are who you say you are) when you sign in to our site;

  • To keep track of your specified preferences such as language, time zone and timeouts after periods of inactivity;

  • To allow you to navigate our sites more easily by “remembering” your identity so that you do not have to input your password multiple times as you move between pages or services.

 

In addition to administrative uses, we may also use cookies in one or more of the following ways, depending on the website you are using:

  • To track how you were referred to our website;

  • To conduct research and analytics to improve our website and our products and services. This includes compiling statistical information concerning, among other things, the frequency of your use of our website, the pages visited and the length of each visit;

  • To display Beth advertisements when you visit websites of third parties with whom we have marketing relationships and to help us gauge the effectiveness of our advertising efforts. These parties may gather information concerning your use of other websites and provide us with de-identified information about you (such as demographic information or the names of sites where you have been shown ads) which we may use to provide you with more relevant and useful advertising.

 

For more information on how we collect and use information that is identifiable to you, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

4.  MANAGING COOKIES

 

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. However, you have the ability to disable cookies if you wish, generally by changing your internet software browsing settings. It may also be possible to configure your browser settings to enable acceptance of specific cookies or to notify you each time a new cookie is about to be stored on your computer enabling you to decide whether to accept or reject the cookie. 

 

The Help menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the “add-on settings” or visiting the website of its manufacturer.
