Cookies are small text files that a website's server places on your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read 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 cookie tells the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages on our Websites, or register for a service, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. When you return to the same Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the customized features.

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 cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Cabot CCU website or other websites you visit. Cabot CCU keeps track of the pages you visit within the Cabot CCU website, in order to determine what portion of the website is the most popular or most used. This data is used to deliver customized content, service, and promotions to visitors whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

A Web beacon is a small string of software code that represents a graphic image (clear gifs) on a website or email. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages or in emails and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

Cabot CCU may also partner with certain third parties to deliver advertisements and monitor activities on our own website. Our partners may use cookies, web beacons, and/or other monitoring technologies to compile statistics about website visitors.
