Use of “Cookies”
Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual for record-keeping purposes. Cookies make web surfing easier for you by saving your preferences while you are at our site. The use of cookies is an industry standard, and as such, you’ll find them at most major websites. By showing how and when users use a site, cookies help us see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the site are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies. We use the information from cookies to provide services better tailored to our Residents’ needs. We also use cookies for user recognition – we track users that may have already given a username and password so you don’t need to do it for every web page requested. User recognition also allows Realstar to use both first party and third party cookies where appropriate. We use ‘persistent cookies’ on our website which are cookies that stay in your web browser between visits. We use these to capture information about our visitors that helps us to improve the performance of our website and create a better experience.
