Use of Cookies

The information about your computer hardware and software which, if you agree, is automatically collected by TAB Miami Valley when you access our website(s) via “cookies” (and can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names and referring website addresses) is used to help you personalize your online experience and is used by TAB Miami Valley for the operation of the website service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the TAB Miami Valley website.

A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize TAB Miami Valley pages, or register with TAB Miami Valley site or services, a cookie helps TAB Miami Valley to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as web forms, billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same TAB Miami Valley Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the TAB Miami Valley features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to
decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the TAB Miami Valley services or websites you visit. Click here for details of how you remove cookies.

We only share your personal data with third parties who also comply with the relevant data protection legislation. While we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal data, you acknowledge that the use of the internet is not secure and for this reason, we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal data that is transferred from you or to you via the internet.
