collect information on our website. A cookie is a text file that is placed on
your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or
deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can
only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. One
of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you
time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned

When you return to the same JessicaHartAuthor.com website, the information
you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features
that you customized. A web beacon is a small graphic image that allows the

the viewer of the web page, web-based document or e-mail message, such as the
type of browser requesting the web beacon, the ip address of the computer that
the web beacon is sent to and the time the web beacon was viewed. Web beacons
can be very small and invisible to the user, but, in general, any electronic
image viewed as part of a web page or e-mail, including html based content, can
act as a web beacon. We may use web beacons to count visitors to the web pages
on the web site or to monitor how our users navigate the web site, and we may
include web beacons in e-mail messages in order to count how many messages sent
were actually opened, acted upon or forwarded.
