Use of Cookies

The Milestone website uses “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies are 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. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Milestone pages, or register with Milestone site or services, a cookie helps Milestone to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Milestone website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Milestone features that you customized.

Milestone keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within Milestone through the use of cookies (see below), in order to determine what Milestone services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Milestone to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

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 prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Milestone services or Web sites you visit.
