Cookies: This is a small data file sent from a server to your web browser or mobile device that is stored on your browser cache or mobile device. You can configure your browser’s settings to reflect your preference to accept or reject cookies (see Managing Cookies below).
Eeb beacons, web bugs: These are tiny graphics with a unique identifier similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to your personally identifiable information.
Tracking technologies have two different lifespans:
Persistent means it remembers certain information about your preferences for viewing the site, and allows Great Retirement Gifts to recognize you each time you return. Persistent cookies are stored on your browser cache or mobile device until you choose to delete them.
Session, on the other hand, is specific to a particular visit to the site, to carry information as you view different pages on Great Retirement Gifts so you don’t have to re-enter information. Session cookies expire and delete themselves automatically when you leave the Site or close your web browser.

Great Retirement Gifts sometimes partners with third-party services who may use various tracking technologies to provide certain services or features, including targeted online marketing. These technologies allow a partner to recognize your computer or mobile device each time you visit Great Retirement Gifts, but do not allow access to personally identifiable information from Great Retirement Gifts. Great Retirement Gifts does not have access or control over these third-party technologies, and they are not covered by our Privacy Policy.
Third-parties may choose to include Great Retirement Gifts widgets on their websites. When you load a website that has chosen to include our widgets, we receive analytics information through a cookie that may be used to enhance our data or to improve our services.
Great Retirement Gifts may release your personal information to a third party in the following circumstances: to protect, establish, or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; to comply with a subpoena, court order, legal process, or other legal requirement; or when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, threats to our property, or violations of Great Retirement Gifts’s Terms of Use.
Great Retirement Gifts may share demographic information with business partners, but it will always be aggregated and anonymized, so personally-identifiable information is not revealed.
Great Retirement Gifts may engage third party companies and individuals (such as payment processors, research companies, analytics and security providers) to help provide our services. These third parties have limited access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated to Great Retirement Gifts not to disclose or use your information for other purposes.
