Cookies

This site uses cookies to provide users with easy access to restricted material and to help us continually improve the site by monitoring usage patterns.

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you’d prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies. However, it is likely that most areas of the site will not function properly if you do so.

Analytics Tracking Tools and Associated Cookies:

Wellesley Information Services place online tracking technology, such as a cookie, on your computer. The cookie itself does not contain any personally identifying information, except when such information has been supplied by you as a subscriber or registered user. In addition, cookies placed on your computer by a third-party advertiser may be used by advertisers to collect web viewing data to serve further online-based advertising known as behavioral advertising.

If you have registered with our website, the information in your cookie is used to provide a more personalized experience on the website.

If you have not registered with our website, we may place a cookie on your computer to help provide a more personalized experience. This cookie identifies you as a unique user by means of a tracking ID, but we cannot link that user ID with personally identifying information about you, such as your name or email address. Other cookies without personally identifying information are used to manage the banner advertisements or personalized information presented to you on the website.

Browsers or third-party software can allow you to block the use of cookies while surfing this website. Third-party “anonymizer” services can mask information in your cookie, like your computer's IP address. In such cases, you would not be able to take advantage of most of the personalization services offered by the website.

Remarketing and Third Party Advertising Technologies

The aggregated information we collect is used to improve the content and design of the website; to help advertisers, potential advertisers, or marketers assess the suitability of the website for their ad campaigns; or to serve clear GIFs, also known as pixel tags, that place cookies on your computer. These cookies allow our ad-serving company, DoubleClick, to manage its online advertising to you. Google has additional information available about third party advertising technologies.
