Use of Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies
Like many companies, we use cookies and similar technologies (such as clear gifs, web beacons, tags, and similar technologies) to collect information about your browsing activities, your interactions with our Website. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web-page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. They are uniquely assigned to you and can be read only by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize ICON pages, or register with ICON’s Websites or services, a cookie helps ICON recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses and so on. When you return to the same ICON Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the ICON features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline them if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the ICON services or Websites you visit.
There are a number of ways to opt out of having your online activity and device data collected through these services, which we summarize below:
- Blocking Cookies In Your Browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies, including cookies used for interest-based advertising. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
- Advertising Industry Opt-Out Tools. You can also use these opt-out options to limit use of your information for interest-based advertising online or in apps by visiting http://optout.aboutads.info.

We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy or internal policies. The criteria we use to determine retention periods for each category of personal information is based on the type of personal information, contractual requirements, or with regards to product or service maintenance and improvements.
