Cookies

E-Hound uses first-party cookies to track and analyze visitors' usage of the Site.

The Site also contains content from third parties that may use "third-party" cookies for advertising purposes. The information shared with advertisers is anonymous and does not contain any personal or confidential data and cannot be used to identify individuals.
Do Not Track
E-Hound tracks its customers over time, but not across third party web sites and not to provide targeted advertising, and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your web browser may allow you to set the DNT signal on your browser so that third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked. Third parties cannot collect any personally identifiable information from E-Hound's website unless you provide it to them directly.

From time to time we may use third party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet. Such advertising companies may collect anonymous information about your visits to our Web site and your interaction with our ads. For instance, it may keep track of how many of our ads you had seen before visiting our site. This is primarily accomplished through ad-serving software, including cookies and Action Tags (commonly referred to as Web Beacons or GIF tags), which we place on various pages within our Site.
E-Hound's contracted advertising companies may use information about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide ads about goods and services of interest to you.
