What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar
technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs").
These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when
someone has visited our website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to
monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or
communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online

success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies
to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
