Use of Cookies

or register with Photo Fact Online site or services, a cookie
helps Photo Fact Online to recall your specific information on
subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your
personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping
addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Photo Fact
Online Web site, the information you previously provided can be
retrieved, so you can easily use the Photo Fact Online features
that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web
browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually
modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If
you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully
experience the interactive features of the Photo Fact Online
services or Web sites you visit.

such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
