effectiveness of, and to improve, not only our Web site but our products and
services.
If you register for certain personalized services, or choose to save personal
information on our Web site, such information may be stored in a cookie. This
allows us to greet you by name the next time you visit our Web site. This also

Technology Used in the Online Collection of Information/Tracer Technologies
Tracer, or spotlighting, technologies may also be used by SmokeEnder.com or its
service providers. Tracers are tiny, invisible graphics that tag content to
collect anonymous site- visitation statistics and track the effectiveness of
certain marketing campaigns like banner advertisements and e-mail. We review the
collected information on an anonymous aggregated, or group, basis without any
personally identifiable consumer information.
Tracers are used by SmokeEnder.com or our service providers to:
Tracer technology may also be used to determine whether a customer who has opted
to receive informational e-mails from SmokeEnder.com is capable of reading
e-mails sent in HTML format. We prefer to send e- mails in HTML format since it
allows customers to view better graphics and improves the customer experience.
The e-mail address of each customer that is identified as being capable of
reading HTML formatted e-mails is marked "HTML-capable" and subsequent
e-mails are sent to the customer in HTML format. If an e-mail address is not
HTML-capable, subsequent e-mails are sent in text or AOL format. Customers can
request, at any time, to discontinue SmokeEnder.com e-mails.
Information Storage
If you submit an application or form to us online, or request an online
transaction, SmokeEnder.com may store the information you send in an electronic
database.

other personally identifiable information from children.
