DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
We use and may allow others to use cookies and similar technologies (e.g., web beacons, pixels) to recognize you and/or your device(s).

Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome) have a “Do Not Track†(“DNTâ€) feature that tells a website that a user does not want to have his or her online activity tracked. If a website that responds to a DNT signal receives a DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many businesses, including Shilngie, do not currently respond to DNT signals.
