Notes on PayPal's privacy agreement emailed 11Sep20. Under Cookies: Line 128 (double spaced in NotePad+ so try line 64) When you access our website, we, or companies we hire to track how our website is used ... [Does this mean these companies are just used for cookie tracking, what else, and is there a list of these companies?] Line 174: information that has been anonymized [What does that mean?
