A cookie is a small text file that can be stored on and accessed from your device when you visit one of our Sites, to the extent you agree. Other tracking technologies work similarly to cookies and place small data files on your devices or monitor your website activity to enable us to collect information about how you use our Sites. This allows our Sites to recognize your device from those of other users of the Sites.
EMMA uses Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies to identify not only you and your interests, but to remember your preferences and track your use of our Sites. We also use Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies to control access to protect the Sites, and to process any requests that you make of us.
