Third-Party Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Much of the above information is collected through cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies, as well as through your web browser or device. TRG relies on partners to provide many features of our sites and Services using data about your use of our and other sites, and how you interact with our emails.
Please visit our Cookie Notice for more information about how we use different categories of cookies and similar technologies and your options for managing their collection of data. We currently do not take steps to respond to browsers’ “Do Not Track” signals as no uniform standard to respond to such signals has been developed at this time.
You can learn more about ad serving companies and the options available to limit their collection and use of your information by visiting the websites for the Network Advertising Initiative, the Digital Advertising Alliance. Similarly, you can learn about your options to opt out of mobile app tracking by certain advertising networks through your device settings and by resetting the advertiser ID on your Apple or Android device.
Please note that opting out of advertising networks services does not mean that you will not receive advertising while using our Services or on other websites, nor will it prevent the receipt of interest-based advertising from other companies that do not participate in these programs. It will, however, exclude you from interest-based advertising conducted through participating networks, as provided by their policies and choice mechanisms. If you delete your cookies, you may also delete your opt-out preferences.
