Technologies
Acxiom uses technologies to help us understand which parts of our websites are visited most often and understand traffic patterns on pages.
Cookies: This site uses cookies to tailor web content to match your browser capability. You can set your Internet browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether or not to accept it. If you reject the cookie, you may still use this site, but you may be limited in the functionality of some areas. For more information about cookies, visit How Cookies Work.
Sensors: To determine your ability to receive HTML-based e-mail messages, Acxiom may include a coded sensor in its HTML-based e-mail messages. The sensor activates when the e-mail message is opened and flags the e-mail address of the recipient as one that is capable of receiving HTML-based e-mail messages. This capability helps us to send the e-mail in a format you can read, which allows us to track the aggregate number of e-mails read and to measure, in aggregate, if any of the links in the e-mail were accessed. If the recipient cannot receive HTML e-mails, the recipient will not receive a functioning sensor.
Log Files: We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ activities and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in improving the site and its applications and services.
Do Not Track Signals: This website does not recognize browser “do-not-track” signals or similar mechanisms.
