In operating the Website, we use a technology called “cookies.” A cookie is a piece of information that the computer that hosts our Website gives to your browser when you access the Website. Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the Website and help us analyze Website usage more accurately.

We also use Google Analytics to help analyze how users use our Website. This tool uses cookies to collect standard Internet log information, device information, and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form.

This information is then used to evaluate visitors’ use of our Website and to compile statistical reports on activity on our Website for SLHGP.

Aggregated Personal Data:

SLHGP may aggregate and/or de-identify any Personal Data that we collect, such that the information no longer identifies any specific individual. We may use, disclose and otherwise process such information for our own legitimate purposes – including historical and statistical analysis and  planning – without restriction. For example, in an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the visitors to our Website, SLHGP may conduct research on Website visitors’ demographics, interests, and behavior based on the Personal Data and other information provided to us. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis, and SLHGP may share this aggregated data with its affiliates, agents, and partners.
