USE OF COOKIES AND COLLECTION OF INFORMATION AUTOMATICALLY

SES collects and stores certain non-personal information automatically whenever a user visits our site.

SES also uses cookie and tracking technology on our website. Cookie and tracking technology is useful for gathering information such as browser type and operating system, tracking the number of visitors to the web site, and understanding how visitors use the site.
