.Use of cookies and other tracking systems. Cookies, log files, and pixel-tags (Web beacons) are technologies used by the Serverlinks.com Web sites to identify a user as the user moves through our Web sites. Your browser allows us to place some information (session based IDs and/or persistent cookies) on your computer's hard drive that identifies the computer you are using. We may use cookies to personalize our Web sites and to track your usage across other Serverlinks.com Web sites.
Your Web browser can be set to allow you to control whether you will accept cookies, reject cookies, or to notify you each time a cookie is sent to you. If your browser is set to reject cookies, Web sites that are cookie-enabled will not recognize you when you return to the Web site, and some Web site functionality may be lost.
On occasion, we contract with third parties to place cookies on your computer's hard drive. These third parties have entered into an agreement with us that requires them to observe our Privacy Policy.
Although cookies do not normally contain personally identifiable information, if you have provided us information about you, we may associate your registration information with cookies or other tracking utilities our Web site places on your computer's hard drive. Associating a cookie with your registration data allows us to offer increased personalization and functionality. Without cookies, this functionality would not be possible.
Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (for example, links to business partners). We do not want our business partners to use cookies to track our customer's activities once they leave our sites. However, we may not have total control over how our business partners may use cookies on our Web site. If you become aware that a Serverlinks.com business partner is placing an unwanted cookie on your hard drive, please contact our privacy officer to assist us in resolving the problem.
In addition, we may use other tracking systems like Pixel-tags. Pixel tags, sometimes called Web beacons, are similar in function to a cookie. But because of its insignificant size, it is not visible; though, it is used to pass certain information to our servers to personalize our Web sites and to track your usage across other Serverlinks.com Web sites. In addition, we may also use Pixel tags in our HTML based emails.
