How
Robbins Capital Management
uses cookies on robbinscapitalmanagement.com and in third-party ads:
-
Cookies
-
A “cookie” is a small
data file transferred by a website to your computer’s hard drive.
Robbins Capital Management
sends cookies when you surf our site, make purchases, request or personalize
information, or register yourself for certain services. Accepting the
cookies used on our site does not give us access to your personal information,
but we may use the cookies to identify your computer. Cookies are typically
classified as either “session” cookies or “permanent” cookies.
-
“Session” cookies do not
stay on your computer after you leave our website or close your browser.
The aggregate information collected permits us to analyze traffic patterns
on our site. This can enable us over time to provide a better experience
on our site by improving content or personalization and making our site
easier to use.
-
“Permanent” cookies are
those that remain on your computer. They are used to facilitate shopping,
personalization and registration services. For example, cookies can keep
track of what you have selected to purchase as you continue to shop and
allow you to enter your password only once on Web pages where a login
is required. “Permanent” cookies can be manually removed by the user.
-
Most browsers automatically
accept cookies by default, but you can usually refuse cookies or selectively
accept certain cookies by adjusting the preferences in your browser. If
you turn off cookies, there may be some features of our site that will
not be available to you and some Web pages may not display properly. You
can find information on popular browsers and how to adjust your cookie
preferences at the following websites:

Web Beacons
-
Currently no
robbinscapitalmanagement.com web pages or HTML-formatted e-mail newsletters use Web beacons in conjunction
with cookies to compile aggregate statistics about website usage. A Web
beacon is an electronic image, called a single-pixel (1x1) or clear GIF.
Web beacons can recognize certain types of information on a visitor's
computer, such as a visitor's cookie number, time and date of a page view,
and a description of the page where the Web beacon is placed. You may
render some Web beacons unusable by rejecting their associated cookies.
-
Third
Party
-
Robbins Capital
Management may occasionally
post third-party ads on its website. Robbins Capital Management may use third-party
media companies to place ads for Robbins Capital Management products or services on other
companies’ websites. If you view a Web page where Robbins Capital
Management ads appear,
the online media company may place a cookie or Web beacon on your computer.
This allows the online media company to recognize the computer when it
is used to return to that site, or to measure advertising response. This
data is anonymous and is not linked to personal data on the user’s computer
or any Robbins Capital Management databases. Some Robbins Capital
Management newsletters delivered on
Robbins Capital Management’s behalf by online media companies use the same technologies.
In both cases, this data is also used by the online media company to measure
advertising and content interest and relevance. Robbins Capital
Management does not have
access to the data collected by the online media company. To prevent online
media companies from placing cookies on your computer, you will need to
visit each media company’s website and use their cookie removal process
or set your browser cookie filter accordingly.
