Use of Cookies.The Clean Coders may use "cookies" to personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. A cookie is uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.
The Clean Coders reserves the right to share site statistics with its business partners and affiliates, and may from time to time allow other companies to place cookies on the Site. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies. If you reject cookies by changing your browser settings then be aware that this may disable some of the functionality on our website.
Use of Web Beacons or GIF Files.The Site may contain electronic images known as web beacons ��� sometimes also called single-pixel gifs ��� that allow The Clean Coders to count users who have visited the Site and to deliver services. The Clean Coders may include web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.
Some of these web beacons may be placed by third party service providers to help determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email communications. These web beacons may be used by these service providers to place a persistent cookie on your computer. This allows the service provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn enables us and our service providers to learn which advertisements and emails bring you to our website and how you use the site.
