These agents have access to member personal information as needed to perform their functions for Coastal Breeze Publications, Inc., but we do not permit them to use it for other purposes.

Cookies

We use cookies to, among other things, save your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time you visit the Websites and to deliver personalized content. Many web browsers are automatically set to accept cookies. You may change your browser settings to either reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is about to be placed on your computer. Please note, however, that rejecting cookies while visiting the Websites may result in certain parts of the Websites not operating correctly or as efficiently as if they were allowed. For example, if you are a member of The Varsity Page or Frosh-Soph, you may need to enter your username and password each time you visit the Websites.
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single-pixel GIFs or web beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.

Third-Party Ad Servers

Most advertisements you see on the Websites are served to your web browser by Coastal Breeze Publications, Inc. However, Coastal Breeze Publications, Inc. allows other companies, called ad networks, to serve advertisements within the Websites or through The Varsity Page and Frosh-Soph services. Ad networks include third-party ad servers, advertising agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. We only authorize our third-party ad networks to employ anonymous cookies for ad delivery and anonymous targeting. Our third-party ad servers do not collect, nor do we give them access, to any personally identifying information about you.
Coastal Breeze Publications, Inc. may also include a file, called a web beacon, from these ad networks within pages served by Coastal Breeze Publications, Inc. to assist with auditing, research and reporting for advertisers.
Because your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network’s servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested web pages from their sites. If you want to prevent a third-party ad server from sending and reading cookies on your computer, at the moment you must visit each ad network’s website individually and opt out (if any offer this capability).
