Cookies
"Cookies" are small data files that are stored on the hard drive of the computer you use to view a website. Every computer that accesses a iLive Site is assigned a different cookie by iLive. Different Cookies serve different purposes:
Session cookies are specific to a particular visit and carry information as you view different pages within a iLive Site. Session cookies expire and delete themselves automatically in a short period of time, e.g., when you leave the website or when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies enable us to recognize you when you visit a iLive Site and remember your preferences. Persistent cookies are stored on your browser or mobile device until you choose to delete them, and otherwise typically delete themselves at expiration.
Third-party cookies are placed by someone other than iLive, and may gather browsing activity across multiple websites and sessions. They are usually persistent cookies and are stored until you delete them or they expire based on the time period set in each third-party cookie.
"Web Beacons" are graphic image files embedded in a page of a website typically used to monitor activity on the page and send back to its home server (which can belong to the host site, a network advertiser or some other third party) information from your browser, such as the IP address, the URL of the page on which the Web Beacon is located, the type of browser that is accessing the site and the ID number of any cookies on your computer previously placed by that server.
"Application SDKs" are mobile application third-party software development kits that are embedded in mobile applications. These app SDKs permit the collection of information about the app itself, activity in the app, and the device the application is running on.

Third Party Cookies
Sponsors or advertisers on the iLive Sites may use their own cookies or other tracking technologies in the banner advertisements and sponsored links and on the pages ("Brand Pages") on the iLive Sites that consist solely of advertisements or other content from our advertisers. This advertiser content may also be served in emails, special promotions or newsletters we send you. Their advertisements may be displayed on the iLive Sites or on other sites that you visit after you visit the iLive Sites. Some advertisers use companies other than iLive to serve their ads and to monitor users' responses to ads, and these ad servers may also collect information through the use of cookies on the iLive Sites.
While we generally permit the use of these third party cookies on the assumption that they comply with our Advertising Policy and we assist our advertisers with the placement of cookies on Brand Pages, we do not control how third parties use cookies or how they manage the information they gather through the use of these technologies on the iLive Sites and we may be unable to verify compliance with our Advertising Policy.

We work with third party ad networks to display advertising on the iLive Sites and on third party sites. Our ad network vendors use technologies to collect information about your activities on the iLive Sites to provide you cookie-based targeted advertising based upon your browsing activity and your interests.

These companies may collect information to deliver you customized ads on both the iLive Sites and non-iLive websites, applications, and services.

Many of these third parties offer information about their data collection practices, and in some cases, an opt-out, on their respective websites.
