Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the Web Site and help us analyze Web Site usage more accurately.

We recommend that you leave cookies turned on because they allow you to take advantage of some of the Web Site’s features.
The Web Site uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies to help the Web Site analyze how users use the Web Site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Web Site (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the Web Site, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.
Managing Cookies and Do Not Track: You can inform the web services with which the Web Site or Row52 Services integrate (such as social buttons, widgets, and other embedded features or content) that you do not want certain information about your webpage visits to be collected. Enabling “Do Not Track” in your web browser settings is an easy way to accomplish this. The “Do Not Track” browser setting is supported by recent versions of major browsers.
