Web Beacons:
Web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags or web bugs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users or to access cookies.

We also may receive an anonymous identification number if you come to our site from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website.

On occasion, aggregate IP address information that does not identify any particular user may be compiled and shared with strategic partners, merchants, and advertisers.
