Use of “cookies:” Cookies are small files which are used to store information on your computer, such as a user ID and password for entering a site or user identification information used during web applications (ex. online forms). Any use of cookies will be only while you are in a site requiring a user ID and password or a site requiring user identification for processing a user request (ex. online forms). We do not use cookies to track what other sites you have visited, and we do not use cookies to obtain any personal or confidential information other than that which we ask for up front.
