This notice explains what cook­ies are and the types of cook­ies Davis Har­ri­son Dion (“DHD” or we”) use on our web­site dhd​chica​go​.com, and oth­er web­sites or appli­ca­tions that may link to this Cook­ie Notice (col­lec­tive­ly, the Sites”).

What are cookies?

A cook­ie” is a text file that web­sites send to a visitor’s com­put­er or oth­er Inter­net-con­nect­ed device to unique­ly iden­ti­fy the visitor’s brows­er or to store infor­ma­tion or set­tings on the device. Cook­ies are then sent back to the orig­i­nat­ing web­site on each sub­se­quent vis­it, or to anoth­er web­site that rec­og­nizes that cook­ie. Cook­ies are use­ful because they allow a web­site to rec­og­nize a visitor’s device and to tar­get the con­tent dis­played to the visitor’s interests. 

Do we use cook­ies on our sites?

Yes. By using the Sites you agree that, unless you have set your computer’s brows­er to reject them, we can place the types of cook­ies set out in the table below on your device, and use that data in accor­dance with this policy. 

We use cook­ies and sim­i­lar tech­nolo­gies (such as web bea­cons and JavaScript) to: i) cus­tomize and improve the user expe­ri­ence on our Sites; ii) deliv­er con­tent tai­lored to the user’s inter­ests and the man­ner in which they browse our Sites; and iii) man­age our Sites and oth­er aspects of our business. 

What types of cook­ies do we use?

Site and Ses­sion Cook­ies
These cook­ies are nec­es­sary for the Sites to work, and enable you to move around the Sites and use their ser­vices and fea­tures. Dis­abling these cook­ies will encum­ber the Sites’ per­for­mance and may make these ser­vices and fea­tures unavail­able. These cook­ies are used to col­lect ses­sion ID and authen­ti­ca­tion data. These site and ses­sion cook­ies expire when you close your brows­er session. 

Per­sis­tent Ses­sion and Pref­er­ence Cook­ies
These cook­ies allow the Sites to help main­tain your ses­sion across mul­ti­ple vis­its and remem­ber the choic­es you have made in order to pro­vide func­tion­al­i­ty for your ben­e­fit. Per­sis­tent cook­ies are used to col­lect infor­ma­tion about your lan­guage pref­er­ences and oth­er pref­er­ences indi­cat­ed dur­ing your vis­it to the Sites. For exam­ple, per­sis­tent ses­sion” cook­ies allow the Sites to remem­ber set­tings spe­cif­ic to you which ulti­mate­ly improves your web experience.

Ana­lyt­ic Cook­ies
Ana­lyt­ic cook­ies are used to gath­er sta­tis­tics about the use of the Sites in order to improve the per­for­mance and design of the Sites and our ser­vices. For these pur­pos­es, ana­lyt­ic cook­ies col­lect infor­ma­tion about your device type, oper­at­ing sys­tem type, brows­er type, domain, oth­er sys­tem set­tings, IP address, refer­ring URLs, infor­ma­tion on actions tak­en on the Sites and the dates and times of your vis­its, as well as the coun­try and time zone in which your device is locat­ed. These ser­vices are tremen­dous­ly help­ful to us in deter­min­ing how our Sites are being used. These cook­ies are pro­vid­ed by our third-par­ty ana­lyt­ics part­ners and the infor­ma­tion obtained through these cook­ies will be dis­closed to, or col­lect­ed direct­ly by, this third-par­ty ser­vice provider.

Addi­tion­al Third-Par­ty Cook­ies
We part­ner with third par­ties to pro­vide you with con­nec­tions to cer­tain social net­works (such as, Face­book, Twit­ter and LinkedIn) and to pro­vide you with addi­tion­al fea­tures (such as, YouTube and Vimeo). By using the Sites or engag­ing with third-par­ty plu­g­ins and wid­gets on our Sites, such third par­ties may place ses­sion or per­sis­tent cook­ies, or sim­i­lar tech­nolo­gies, on your brows­er. These tech­nolo­gies may pro­vide the third par­ties infor­ma­tion about your vis­it so that they can present you with adver­tise­ments for our prod­ucts and ser­vices which may be of inter­est to you. This helps us track the effec­tive­ness of our mar­ket­ing efforts. 

How do I dis­able or remove cookies?
