You may chose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.

When you register, we will request some personal information such as name, address, email, telephone number or facsimile number, account number and other relevant information. If you are purchasing a service, we will request financial information. Any financial information we collect is used only to bill you for the services you purchased. If you purchase by credit card, this information may be forwarded to your credit card provider. For other types of registrations, we will ask for the relevant information. You may also be asked to disclose personal information to us so that we can provide assistance and information to you.

4. Use of Web Beacons or GIF files
Our EFFRS web pages may contain electronic images known as Web Beacons – sometimes also called single-pixel gifs – that allow our company to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver co-branded services. EFFRS may include Web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.
Some of these Web Beacons may be placed by third party Service Providers to help determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email communications. These Web Beacons may be used by these Service Providers to place a persistent cookie on your computer. This allows the Service Provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn enables us and our service providers to learn which advertisements and emails bring you to our website and how you use the site. Our website prohibits Web beacons from being used to collect or access your personal information.
