Cookies and tracking

The Site and its service providers use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site functioning, remember shopping-cart activity and preferences, support customer service, measure engagement, and facilitate marketing.

These technologies may include:

  • Essential technologies needed for security, navigation, shopping-cart functions, checkout, and Site operation.

  • Functional technologies used for features such as chat, forms, and remembered preferences.

  • Analytics technologies used to understand visits, page views, interactions, and Site performance.

  • Marketing technologies used to measure communications, recognize subscribers, support automated messages, and, if enabled, facilitate personalized or retargeted advertising.

You can control many cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through a cookie-preference tool on the Site. Blocking certain cookies may prevent parts of the Site from working correctly. Where required by applicable law, we will request consent before using nonessential cookies or honor legally recognized opt-out preference signals.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a universally accepted standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, the Site does not currently respond to those signals except where applicable law requires otherwise.

Email marketing

If you subscribe to marketing communications, we may use your contact information, purchase history, browsing activity, and communication engagement to send or personalize messages. Marketing emails may contain technologies that indicate whether a message was opened or a link was selected.

You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in a marketing email. Unsubscribing from promotional messages will not prevent us from sending non-promotional communications necessary to complete a transaction, respond to a request, or provide important service or policy information.
