"Cookies" and "Clear Gifs"
"Cookies" are small files that are stored by your web browser to help a particular system recognize the pages you have recently visited through Washington Healthplanfinder. Our website uses cookies to make your online experience more convenient. For example, we may use cookies to store your account information between sessions or to maintain information about the quotes you've requested during your session. Additionally, we may use data from cookies for a variety of internal purposes, such as studying how users navigate Washington Healthplanfinder. We do not collect any personal information from cookies. Further, no other information we collect from cookies can be linked back to your personal information. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies. Even without cookies being enabled, you can still use most of the features on Washington Healthplanfinder, including obtaining quotes and applying for an insurance policy.
"Clear gifs" are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies that are used to track the online movements of website users. The main difference between the two is that clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller than cookies. We do not collect any personal information from clear gifs, and no information we collect from clear gifs can be linked back to your personal information.
We use third party web analytics services to track and analyze anonymous usage and volume statistical information from visitors to help us administer Washington Healthplanfinder, analyze trends, improve the performance of Washington Healthplanfinder, and report website traffic. These web analytics services use cookies, clear gifs, log files and other web monitoring technologies to help track visitor behavior on our behalf. These services do not use these technologies to collect any personally identifiable information from website visitors.
