The function of this cookie is to serve ads specific to you and your interests which is also known as 'interest based targeting' or 'interest-based advertising'. The advertisements served will be targeted based on your earlier browsing history (for example, if you have been regularly viewing sites about travel, you may see advertisements related to airlines tickets, travel equipment, and travel insurance when viewing a non-related site, such as a site about food). DART uses non personally identifiable information. It does not track your personal information such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security number, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting the DoubleClick website.

By doing so, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts. One thing you must know is that deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time you visit a website running the advertisements, a new cookie will automatically be added again.
