COOKIES.

Currently, our website uses cookies to provide you with the best experience possible. We, in addition to our service providers, affiliates, agents, advertisers,  or other parties in connection to the website, may deploy cookies, web beacons, local shared objects, and other tracking technologies for various purposes. Such will be for business use, marketing purposes, fraud prevention, and to assist in the day-to-day operations of the website. 

a.) "Cookies" Defined. Cookies act as data that is communicated between a user's web browser or application. They are stored on your device to help track their areas of interest, provide the best experience possible, and customize the content, product, service, offerings, and advertisements served on the website. Most web browsers adjust to your browser's settings to decline or delete cookies, but doing so may degrade your experience with our online service.  

b.) 1-Pixel Images. Clear GIF's, pixel tags, or web beacons, which are generally 1 -pixel, are transparent images located on a webpage or e-mail or other trackable source and may be used on our website in addition to other communication offered by us. They are often used in connection with advertisements served to you that are interacted with, whether on our website or another online service, and shared with us. This type of tracking is specifically meant to recognize users, assess traffic patterns, and measure site or campaign engagements.

c.) Flash Cookies. Local Shared Objects, sometimes known as "flash cookies", may be stored on your device using a media player or other software. Flash cookies are similar to cookies in terms of their operation but may be managed in your browser in the same manner. 

d.) First (1st) Party & Third (3rd) Party Cookies. First (1st) Party cookies are stored by a domain (website) you are visiting directly. They allow us to collect analytic data, remember preferred settings (e.g. language, currency, etc),  and perform related functions. Third (3rd) Party cookies are created by domains other than those you are visiting directly, hence its name "third (3rd) Party". They may be used for cross-tracking, retargeting, and ad-serving. 

e.) Essential Cookies. Such cookies are technically necessary to provide website functionality. They act as a basic form of memory,  used to store the preferences selected by a user on a given website or application. They are essential to browsing and cannot be disabled by users. As an example, an essential cookie may be used to recognize a past user from having to log in each time they visit a new page in the same session. 

f.) Performance and Function Cookies. Such cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of a website but are not essential to its use. However, without these cookies, certain functions (like videos) may become unavailable. 

g.) Advertising Cookies. Such Cookes are used to customize a user's ad experience on the website. When using data collected from cookies, it can prevent the same ad from appearing multiple times in the same session or that does not offer a pleasant experience. Advertising cookies may be used to serve a user with related services, products, or offerings that they may have shown a level or related interest in their past user history. 

We use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart, understand and save your preferences for future visits, to track eBay Partner Network affiliate data, keep track of advertisements and compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.

If you prefer, you can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies via your browser settings. Like most websites, if you turn your cookies off, some of our services may not function properly.
