Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) means information that can be directly associated with you (such as your name, email address, or telephone number), or information about activities directly linked to you (such as subscriptions that you have licensed or purchased).

We may send one or more cookies (small text files containing a string of characters) to your computer to uniquely identify your browser. We may use “web beacons” (electronic images also known as pixel tags or clear gifs) to recognize an CenterSource cookie on your computer when you view or act upon an CenterSource web page, an CenterSource advertisement posted on a third-party web page, or an email from us.

In order to provide you with better service and to improve our services and products, we may link this information to PII.
Most browsers allow you to remove and block cookies and web beacons.

Also, you may not be able to use certain CenterSource web site features or take full advantage of our offerings.
1.3 Information from other sources
