"Cookies" are small pieces of information stored in a user's browser that give that user a unique identification. The Site may insert cookies into your browser that identify you as a previous user of the Site and contain non-personally identifying information regarding you and your navigation of the Site. In some instances, these cookies may be used by REDI or other websites during your future navigation of the Internet to target specific advertisements to you based on your previous use of the Site.

Clear gifs and cookies are not tied to user's personally identifiable information.
In addition to your IP address and the information collected through cookies and clear gifs, REDI may collect personally identifiable information about you that you voluntarily provide while using the Site. REDI may use such personally identifiable information to contact you when reasonably necessary, to administer or provide customer support for the Site, and to provide you with electronic communications about new products or services or upcoming events.
