Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of information stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive, at a web site's request. ObituariesHelp.org cookies do not contain any personal information, but are used primarily as follows:

to keep track of temporary information. For example, cookies allow us to keep track of documents you download;
to register you in programs, such as ObituariesHelp.org.com Membership (coming soon). Cookies allow us to remember you when you login to the places on our site that require Membership;

Cookies and Third Party

ObituariesHelp.org participates in cookie-based ad networks operated by Google and its affiliates, and by ObituariesHelp.org. These networks use some anonymous information about your visits to this and other web sites to display ads on this and other web sites that are most likely to be of interest to you. We do not permit these companies to collect any personal information about you. Rather, these companies use cookies, web beacons, pixels, or other technologies to collect information about the effectiveness of their advertisements, and anonymous information about your visits to ObituariesHelp.org, such as the number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, email address or other personal data).

Web Beacons

We also place small "tracker gifs" or "beacons" on many of the pages on our website, in online advertising with third parties, and in our e-mail. We use these beacons, in connection with cookies, to collect non-personal data on the usage of our site including but not limited to the date and time of the visit, the pages visited, the referring web page, the type of browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox), the type of operating system (e.g., Windows, Linux, or Mac), and the domain name of the visitor's Internet service provider (e.g., AOL). This information is collected about thousands of site visits and analyzed as a whole. This information is useful in, for example, tracking the performance of our online advertising such as online banner ads and to determine where to place future advertising on other web sites.

Disabling Cookies and Beacons

If you are uncomfortable with the collection of such information through the use of cookies and beacons, we recommend disabling these features through your browser preferences, though please understand this will limit the performance and functionality of ObituariesHelp.org's Web site. Your browser documentation should provide specific procedures for disabling cookie and beacon support.

IP Address

We analyze IP addresses in the aggregate for system administration purposes and to gather broad demographic information. We do not link IP addresses to your computer's User ID, with the following exception: when you place an order using our online checkout process we record your computer's IP address with your order to help us identify fraudulent credit card use. We may share this information with the financial institution that issued the credit card with which an order was placed, or with law enforcement authorities if we determine, or are notified, that the use of the credit card was fraudulent.

Affiliate Site ID

We do this to ensure that the affiliate site receives proper credit for any subsequent order you might place. We may also use this information in conjunction with your activities on our site to help us identify what offers and services may be of interest to you. Information from Other Sources: We sometimes obtain additional information about you, such as demographic and lifestyle information, from other sources and merge it with information we have collected on this site, as well as information you may have provided offline.
