In order to provide a full range of Services, we may collect the following types of information about you:

• Information you provide – When you sign up to use a Service that requires registration, we ask you for personal information (such as your name, e-mail address, postal address, etc.). We may combine the information you provide to us with information that we obtain about you through other services or third parties; we do this to provide you with a better experience and to improve the quality of the project and the Services. For certain of the Services, we may give you the opportunity to opt out of combining such information about you.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some of the Services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.
