Cookies
Delta Dental of New Jersey uses "cookies" technology to provide session management. Session management allows the site to track which page a user was on after submitting a request for information. This technology prevents the user from having to re-enter information each time he or she looks at a page of output from a request.

We also may use what is known as "client-side page tagging," which uses code on our products pages to write certain information about the page and the visitor to a log when a page is rendered by your web browser. "Tagging" does result in a JavaScript program running on your computer, however, it is limited to providing information about the page that you are requesting and the configuration of your browser. It will not read any of your data files or execute any additional programs. It does not extract any personal information about you, such as your name or address. You can prevent tagging by disabling JavaScript in your browser, but that may prevent you from using all of our website's functions. You can opt-out of receiving behavioral ads if you're uncomfortable with the concept.
