Your browser software may be set to refuse cookies, but if it does so, you will be unable to enroll in a HomeGift Program. A cookie accepted by your computer does not store or reveal any personally identifiable information such as your name, address, telephone number or email address. The cookie stores limited information about your site visit, including such things as which pages and how many times you visit. We may also use cookies or small pieces of software code known as “Web beacons” to count, on a purely anonymous basis, the number of users that have visited our pages. Web beacons also do not store or transmit personally identifiable information. Log files on our Web servers, known as “Web logs”, store non-personally identifiable information that is automatically gathered from computers that visit our site such as internet protocol address (your computer’s internet address), operating system, internet service provider, browser type, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.
