A cookie is a small amount of data that's stored by your browser on your device.

Clear gifs in emails help us confirm the receipt of, and response to, our emails, including those that you forward to friends and family; and they help deliver a more personalized or better online experience.

In addition to cookies and clear gifs, we may also use device identifiers, web storage, and other technologies to collect information about your interactions with our content and Services. 

These technologies, illustrated above, may be used to help us see which of our interactive experiences online users like most.
