Outpointe uses cookies and web server logs to assist in the collection of site usage statistics. This information may include personal information including the date/time of visits, specific pages viewed, time spent browsing our websites, and the websites visited immediately before and after visiting our websites. Our websites will ask for your permission through a “cookie banner” to store cookie files on your computer/handheld device. Note also that most internet browsers allow you to erase cookies from your hard drive, block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Refer to your browser’s help files to learn more about these functions.
In particular, Outpointe may use session ID cookies and persistent cookies. Session ID cookies may be used to personalize and improve your user experience while viewing our websites.

Your IP address is utilized so that we can send you data such as the web pages you have requested, and we may use your browser and platform type to ensure that the data we send to you are properly formatted and displayed. We may aggregate this information with data on the pages visited by other users to track page navigation, site usage, and overall user behaviors associated with our websites. These data aid in our understanding of how users are using our websites in terms of page navigation and most frequently requested site pages. Understanding this information enables us to provide you with improved site use and functionality.
