SPECIAL INFORMATION TRANSMISSION CLAUSES

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. Bright Future may use cookies on the site. Bright Future uses both session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies. Bright Future uses session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate the site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

Bright Future may set a persistent cookie that enables Bright Future to track and target the interests of Bright Future’s users to enhance the experience on the site.

If you reject cookies, your ability to use some areas of the site will be limited. Some of Bright Future’s partners (e.g., advertisers) may use cookies on the site. Bright Future has no access to or control over these cookies.

This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by Bright Future only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Clear Gifs(Web Beacons/Web Bugs)

Bright Future may employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that helps Bright Future better manage content on the site by informing Bright Future what content is effective. 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 and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Bright Future may tie the information gathered by clear gifs to Bright Future’s customers’ personally identifiable information.

Bright Future may use clear gifs in Bright Future’s HTML-based emails to let Bright Future know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows Bright Future to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of Bright Future’s marketing campaigns.
