Cookies and Web Beacons

Cholesterol-LoweringFoods.org uses cookies to help you personalize your online experience, to help identify and track visitors, their use of our website, and their website access preferences.

Cookies are identifiers that are transferred to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page.

For example, if you personalize the site’s pages, or register with any of the site’s services, a cookie enables Cholesterol-LoweringFoods.org to recall your specific information on subsequent visits.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying your Web browser; however, if you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the site.

A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey around a single website or collection of sites. They are also referred to as web bugs and are commonly used by sites that hire third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.

Advertising Cookies

Google Adsense

We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our website. You can find a list of these companies here.

These companies use cookies and web beacons in their ads to ascertain how many times you’ve seen an advertisement. We share this information with these companies, but do not provide them with any personally identifiable information for cookie or web beacon use, so they cannot personally identify you with that information from our website.

You may opt out of personalized ads for over 125 different ad networks. Click here to do that.

Some third-party advertisements are served by Google. Google’s cookie enables it to serve ads to our visitors based on their visits to other sites on the Web. You may opt out of personalized ads by visiting the Google ad opt-out page.

This link from Google provides more information about how Google manages data in its ad products.

And here is Google’s own privacy policy where they describe what they do to protect your information and give you control over it.
