We do not track your activity on any other website, but ours.  We do not participate in activities commonly known as behavioral advertising and we, by default, do not track your activity on any other site.  Some browsers have a “do not track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked.  These features are not yet uniform, and our website is not currently set up to respond to those signals for tracking on our website.
