This Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type or the domain from which you are visiting, the websites you visit, the search terms you use, and any advertisements on which you click.

Cookies: We use cookies and other technologies to passively collect demographic information, personalize your experience on our site and monitor advertisements and other activities. Cookies are small files downloaded to your computer to track movements within web sites. Cookies may enhance and personalize your online experience by helping you find the information you want.

For example, we may use cookies to tell us whether you've visited us before or if you're a new visitor, to enable you to use certain website features, and to monitor and maintain information about your use of our websites. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to delete existing cookies. However some areas of our sites will not function properly if you do so. Please note that this privacy policy covers the use of cookies by P&K only and does not cover the use of cookies by any third parties.

Other Technologies: Other technologies used include clear GIFs. Clear GIFs also known as web bugs, beacons or tags, are small graphic images placed on a web page, web-based document, or in an e-mail message. Clear GIFs are invisible to the user because they are typically very small (only 1-by-1 pixel) and the same color as the background of the web page, document or e-mail message. Clear GIFs help us analyze our customers' online behavior and measure the effectiveness of our websites and email communications. We work with certain service providers that help us track, collect, and analyze this information. Clear GIFs on our websites may be used to collect information about your visit, including the pages you view, the features you use, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with the websites. This information may include your computer's IP address, your browser type, your Internet service provider (ISP), your operating system, date and time information, and other technical information about your computer. Clear GIFs in our emails may be used to track your interactions with those messages, such as when you receive, open, forward, or click a link in an email message from us.

We may also combine the information we collect from cookies and Clear GIFs with other information that we have collected from you. This information may be used for purposes of improving our websites, personalizing your online experience, tailoring our communications with you, and determining the effectiveness of our advertising.

Third Party Websites: From time to time, we may provide links to third party websites. These websites operate independently from P&K, and may have their own privacy statements in place, which we strongly suggest you review if you visit any linked websites. To the extent any linked websites you visit are unrelated to P&K, we are not responsible for their content or any use of the websites.


How We Protect Personal Information

We will share your personally identifiable information with these third parties and parties they may engage to support their efforts, but only to the extent necessary to perform these functions and provide such services, and only pursuant to binding contractual obligations requiring such third parties to maintain the privacy and security of your data.
