A cookie allows us to recognize your computer (but not specifically who is using it) upon entering our site by associating the identification numbers in the cookie with other customer information you have provided us. Should we elect to utilize cookies, customer information will be stored on our secured database. We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. We may also use cookies to remember you when you return to the Sites as well as to identify the pages you click on during your visit to our Sites and, in some cases, the name of the website you visited immediately before clicking to the Table Group Websites. We use this information to improve our site design, customer service, and special promotions. You can, of course, disable cookies on your computer by indicating this in the preferences or options menus in your browser. However, it is possible that some parts of our Sites will not operate correctly if you disable cookies. We may contract with third parties who may use cookies and collect information on our behalf or provide services such as credit card processing, shipping, promotional services, or data management. These third parties are prohibited by our contract with them from sharing that information with anyone other than us or our other similar third party relationships.

Web Beacons/Tracking Tools: We also collect information about you, your device, and your use of the Sites through clear gifs (a.k.a. web beacons/web bugs) (“Web Beacons”), and other tracking tools and technological methods (collectively, “Tracking Tools”).

These Tracking Tools help us learn more about our users and analyze how users use the Service, such as how often users visit our Service, what features they use, what pages they visit, what emails they open, and what other sites or applications they used prior to and after visiting the Service.

Web Beacons help us better manage content on our Service by informing us what content is effective.
