This information is generally aggregated and not directly identifiable to you.
We may also leverage advertising platforms (such as Google Ads/AdWords, Facebook Ads, etc.) to drive traffic to our Site. These platforms may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing behavior on our Site and other websites over time to deliver targeted advertisements.
