Web beacons are graphic images, often transparent and no larger than 1 pixel x 1 pixel, that are placed on a Website or in an e-mail. Web beacons are used to monitor the behavior of the user visiting the Website or opening an e-mail. When the HTML code for the Web beacon points to a site to retrieve the image, it simultaneously can pass along information such as the IP address of the computer that retrieved the image, the time the Web beacon was viewed and for how long, the type of browser that retrieved the image and any previously set cookie values. The Website, or third parties acting on the Website’s behalf, may utilize Web beacons on Web pages or in e-mail for any legally permissible purpose. (c) General Behavior Tracking. The Website may track online behaviors (“Behaviors”) through its own technologies, including its desktop software products, in order to increase the effectiveness of the advertisements it delivers.
