Cookies
As is common practice with websites, we use cookies to enhance your web viewing experience. A "cookie" is a small text file that a website can place on your computer's hard drive in order, for example, to collect information about your activities on the site or to recognize your computer in the future. The cookie transmits this information back to the website's computer which, generally speaking, is the only computer that can read it.
When you log onto our website, our website system assigns you a unique identification number and records that number in the cookie file for your computer. Then, when you visit us again, we are able to read this number to help gain prompt access to your information. The cookie can help ensure that your information is kept accurate and also, as a matter of convenience, keeps you from having to re-enter certain personal and identifying information. Despite its existence, the cookie will not be associated with any personal information about you and EZLynx will not be able to identify you personally online. The information stored in the cookie is in an encrypted format and cannot be read without the encryption key.
While we believe that certain cookies enhance your web experience with our website, you have the option of setting your web browser to reject cookies. However, doing so may negatively impact the performance of this website.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may, from time to time, update this policy. We will prominently post on this policy page, the date and content of any significant changes in the way we treat personal information.
