I was reading the Cookie Policy. Came across this paragraph; web beacons we and our associates may use web beacons (sometimes known as web bugs, clear pixels or clear gifs). web beacons are small graphics with unique identifiers. their function is similar to cookies and they are used to help us understand how our Website is uses, the pages and content that are viewed, the downloads that are made. we may analyze this information to see how effective certain pages and content on our Website are and how the various features on our site are used. though cookies are stored on your computer hard drive, web beacons are placed on our web pages, emails and advertisements. we and our associates may link the information gathered by web beacons to other information we may have collected about you. I usually duck when I read a policy that has grammar errors. Hope this helps!
