COOKIES

We automatically collect certain types of usage and device information when you visit our Site, read our emails or otherwise engage with us. We typically collect this information through the use of cookies (a small text file sent from a website and stored on your device), web beacons or pixels and similar tracking technologies, and we may utilize third party services to collect this information. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Site. This type of information is collected to make the Site more useful to you and to tailor the experience with us to meet your special interests and needs. Cookies also gather website statistical data, such as which pages you visit, what is included in your shopping cart, the Internet provider's domain name and the addresses of the sites you visit immediately before coming to and immediately after leaving our Site. However, none of this information is associated with you as an individual. It is measured anonymously and only in the aggregate. The information in the cookies lets us trace your "clickstream" activity (i.e., the paths taken by users of the Site as they move from page to page) to enable us to better serve our customers by revealing which portions of the Site are the most popular. Cookies do not contain any personal information. You may disable cookies on your browser. Please refer to your browser's instructions for doing so.

Pixel tags, cookies and/or other analytical tools in L'AVANT’s emails may be used to track your interactions with those messages, such as when you receive, open, or click a link in an email message from us.

We may also work with businesses that use tracking technologies to deliver advertisements on our behalf across the internet. These companies may collect information about your visits to the Site and your interaction with our advertising and other communications, but no personal information is shared with those third-party businesses.

We may combine the information collected through cookies, pixel tags and other analytical tools with other information we may have collected from you. This information may be used to improve our Site, to personalize your online experience, to help us deliver information to you, to determine the effectiveness of advertising, and for other internal business purposes.

  • With Third Parties for Marketing Purposes. This may include third parties whose products or services we believe you may be interest in. These third parties may also share your personal information with others. These third parties may use your personal information for their own marketing purposes or the marketing purposes of others including delivery of interest-based advertising.
  • For Business Transactions or Reorganizations. We may take part in or be involved with a corporate business transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, joint venture, financing or sale of all or a portion of our company assets.
