B. Automatically Collected Usage and Device Information

Like most websites, the Services use various technologies to automatically collect information about visitors. Those technologies include:

Cookies. Cookies are small text files that a website transfers to a visitor's device for recordkeeping purposes. We use cookies (including those supplied by our third-party vendors) to personalize visitors' experiences on the Services, sign you in to an account or accounts, update referral credits, provide content that we believe may be of interest, track visitor trends and patterns, engage in marketing and advertising, and otherwise analyze the Services traffic. For further information about cookies, including how to refuse cookies, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Pixels, tags, web beacons, and other similar technologies.
