4. Cookies

Like many web sites, we use ‘cookies’ and obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses our website. This enables our system to recognize your browser and to provide features such as storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits. We use tracking information to determine which features of our websites that users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas.

Wavecom Instruments creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners.

We will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.
