3. Use of Cookies.
The Site uses “cookies” to help personalize your online experience at the Site and for other internal uses. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
a. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages on the Site, or register with the Site or services, a cookie helps the Site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as logon information, and so on. When you return to the Site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features of the Site that you customized.
