Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages.

They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. If you are not logged into one of our sites, they do not directly identify you but use the browsing activity across several websites to serve you with ads that we believe are relevant to you.
