Pixel Tags and Cookies
We and our third party partners may automatically collect certain types of usage information when you visit our website or use our Service.

A cookie may also convey information to us about how you use our website (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click, how frequently you access our website, and other actions you take on our website), and allow us to track your usage of the Service over time.

We also use an email delivery and marketing company to send emails. Pixel tags and cookies are used in those email messages and at our website to help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing and how visitors use our site. Pixel tags (sometimes also called “clear GIFs”) are small graphic files, invisible to the human eye, which allow websites or other online services to track users. A14 and our third-party advertising company use pixel tags in HTML-enabled email to track whether (and when) the recipient opened the message.
