By using an Alight Solutions website, you agree that we can place cookies on your device as described in our Privacy Policy and this Cookie Notice.
A cookie is a piece of information contained in a very small text file that's stored in your Internet browser or elsewhere on your hard drive. They allow a website to identify your device whenever you return to the website. Cookies are commonly used to make websites work more efficiently and enrich your experience, as well as to provide information to us.
Alight Solutions collects information during your visit to Alight Solutions websites by using cookies. We use these cookies for a variety of reasons, most commonly to distinguish you from other users of our websites and to help us compile aggregate statistics about site usage. We also use cookies to help us provide you with a positive experience when you browse our website, to help us improve our content, and to personalize your visit.
Below, we describe the purpose of the main types of cookies we use on Alight Solutions websites. The type and purpose of our cookies may change from time to time, and we will update the contents of this section to reflect those changes.
These cookies help us maintain your transaction history while you are on our website. Generally, your session cookies expire when you close your browser. Session cookies reduce the need for Alight Solutions to transfer your information over the Internet.
These cookies, also called "persistent cookies", recognize repeat visitors to the site and allow the site to remember the choices you make (such as your language and location). They record specific browsing information (including how you arrive on the site, pages you view, options you select, information you enter, and the path you take through the site) against an individual customer profile.

This cookie determines whether
the cookie information pop-up will appear when you arrive on the site. It
appears only once, unless you change your cookie settings (for example, by
clearing your cookie cache). This cookie also stores your preference for the
use of cookies, so if you decline cookies, the site won't function. But if
you permit cookies, the site will work as intended without asking for your
preference again. |

Alight Solutions uses Adobe
Flash Player on its websites to deliver video content. Adobe has developed
its own cookies, which are used by the Flash Player for purposes similar to
other cookies, such as storing preferences or tracking users. |

Page Tags |
Embedded java scripts or
"page tags" are small portions of programming code included within
some of our Alight Solutions web pages that measure how you use those pages.
These "page tags" measure which pages you visit most often and may also measure
which links you click, as well as which features of our website you use most.
We use this information to improve and tailor our websites and our services,
and to conduct research. |

Web Beacons |
Web Beacons are small images
embedded in web content and HTML-formatted email messages, and are usually
not visible to you. We use these beacons to track which content and pages you
viewed on our sites. We also use them in HTML-formatted emails to determine
whether they have been opened, and whether links were accessed. These beacons
help us identify aggregate trends and individual usage. We can then get
statistics about how our site is used. All of this is done to provide you
with more relevant content about our services. |
If you choose to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or part of our site and may be unable to use those services or engage in activities that require the placement of cookies.
Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through browser settings. You can control whether or not to accept cookies in your Internet browser preferences. You can accept all cookies, be notified when a cookie is set, or reject all cookies.

If you don't want your data recorded by Google or Universal Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on by clicking here
This add-on prohibits certain Google and Universal Analytics JavaScript files (ga.js, dc.js, and analytics.js) from sending information to Google Analytics. This opt out does not prevent information from being sent to our website, or from being sent to other web analytics services.
If you don't want Adobe cookies on your device, follow the instructions on the Adobe website.
Web beacons can't be declined when delivered by a regular web
page. Web beacons can be refused when delivered by email. If you don't want Web
beacons in your email, configure your email software to disable HTML images or
refuse HTML emails (selecting the option for text-only viewing). You can also
set your browser to decline cookies or to prompt you for an opt-in response
before cookies are set.
