A cookie is a piece of information which a web server may place on your computer when you visit a web site. Cookies are commonly used by web sites to improve the user experience and have not been known to transmit computer viruses or otherwise harm your computer. Many cookies last only through a single web site session, or visit. Others may have an expiration date, or may remain on your computer until you delete them. 

We may use cookies for a number of purposes - for example, to maintain continuity during a user session, to gather data about the usage of our Web site for research and other purposes, to store your preferences for certain kinds of information and marketing offers, or to store a user name or encrypted identification number so that you do not have to provide this information every time you return to our Web site. 

Our cookies will track only your activity relating to your online activity on this Web site, and will not track your other Internet activity. Our cookies do not gather personally identifiable information. 

You can decide if and how your computer will accept a cookie by configuring your preferences or options in your browser. However, if you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to use certain of our online products and services or Web site features. 

We may occasionally use other companies to set cookies on our Web site and gather cookie information for us. In some cases, we may also use another company to operate web servers or process credit card purchases for our Web site. We use the cookie information gathered by these companies in the same manner as stated above. 
In addition to the information we collect from cookies, we also obtain information which you provide to us online - for example, when you sign up for product updates or when you purchase products or otherwise communicate with us. In some cases, we retain both the cookie information and/or the information you provide to us online - for example, to complete a transaction you requested or to keep historical records of your past transactions. In other cases, we only retain the cookie and/or online information you give us if you request us to do so for your use in subsequent sessions.

We will collect information about the Internet Service Providers and the browsers that visitors use to visit www.genesisinsurance.com, and we will use this aggregated information statistically to serve our customers better.
