the use of hyperlinks to their sites from our Site, or through offering
"co-branded" sites in which both ourselves and these other
parties share the same uniform resource locator, domain name or pages
within a domain name on the Internet. In some cases you may be required
to submit information for purposes of registering or applying for
products or services provided by such third parties or co-branded
partners. The privacy policy of such other parties may differ from ours,
and we may not have any control over the information that you submit to
such third parties or co-branded sites. We therefore encourage you to
read that policy before responding to any offers, products or services
provided by such other parties.
5. Cookies

can be sent to your computer's hard drive only if you access
our Site using the computer. If you do not de-activate or erase
the cookie, each time you use the same computer to access our
Site, our web servers will be notified of your visit to our Site
and in turn we may have knowledge of your visit and the pattern
of your usage. Generally, we use cookies to identify you and
enable us to access your Registration Information, Publishing
Information or Payment Information so you do not have to
re-enter it; gather statistical information about usage by
Users; research visiting patters and help target advertisements
based on User interests; assist our partners to track User
visits to the Site and process orders; and track progress and
participation in promotions. |
| 5.2 |
You can determine if and how a cookie will be accepted by
configuring your browser's which is installed in the computer

those configurations in your browser. By setting your

to re-enter your information on our Site more often and certain
features of our Site may be unavailable. |
| 5.3 |
We also use third party advertisements on this website to support

also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google
AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP ,
the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether
you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting
purposes (showing New York real estate ads to someone in New York,
for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited
(such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking
sites). You can chose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies
or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing
preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However,
this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well
