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

site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so
you can easily use the site's features that you customized.
Web beacons, also
known as clear gif technology, or action tags, may be used to assist
in delivering the cookie on our site. This technology is a tool we
use to compile aggregated statistics about ALSCOAutoAuction.com Web
site usage, such as how many visitors clicked on key elements on
ALSCOAutoAuction.com. ALSCOAutoAuction.com may share aggregated site
statistics with partner companies, but do not allow other companies
to place clear gifs or cookies on our sites unless there is a
temporary, overriding seller and/or bidder value.
You have the ability
to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept
cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline
cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not
be able to fully experience the interactive features of this or
other Web sites you visit.
