Cookies

Our website uses “cookies”. Cookies help us understand our visitors’ needs and interests, and we use that information to improve our website and the services offered on the individual pages. They are not linked to any personally identifiable information. If a user rejects the cookie, our site may still be used, however, the user’s access to some areas of our website may be limited.

A “cookie” is a small text file containing a random and unique identifier that either
PortMessage or a business partner, such as a third-party web analytics provider, transfers to your computer through your web browser (unless you set your browser to reject cookies). PortMessage uses cookies to, among other things, recognize your browser, track your movement through the website, to track the point of registration for those users signing up for mailings or programs, and to track and measure the success of a marketing campaign.

PortMessage specifically uses Google Analytics and re-targeting cookies to allow 3rd party service providers to provide advertisements on our behalf across the internet. These service providers may collect your IP address and non-personal data about your visits. This is completely anonymous and does not include your name, address, email address or other personal information. Additionally, these cookies are used to gather anonymous statistical information on how the website is browsed.

You can block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. For more information about cookies, including how to set your internet browser to reject cookies, please go to www.allaboutcookies.org or http://www.networkadvertising.org. You can specifically opt-out of Google Analytics using this tool.
