Our Website uses cookies.  A cookie is a small piece of data or a text file that is downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you access certain websites.  Cookies may contain text that can be read by the web server that delivered the cookie to you.  The text contained in the cookie generally consists of a sequence of letters and numbers that uniquely identify your computer or mobile device, and it may contain other information as well.

Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their website work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.  Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, What Waist) are called “first-party cookies.”  Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.”  Third-party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics).  The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer when it visits the website in question and when it visits certain other websites.

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.  You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.  If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website although your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted.  Because how you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser’s help menu or user documentation for more information.  In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt-out of targeted advertising.  If you would like to find out more information, please visit one or both of the following sites: http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com.
