8. Derivative Instruments
Cash flow hedges
We generally use derivative instruments to manage our variable interest rate risk. We have entered into interest rate swap agreements, which effectively convert portions of our variable rate debt under the 2020 Credit Facility to a fixed rate for the term of the swap agreements. We designated each of the interest rate swap agreements as a cash flow hedge at the inception of the contracts.
The terms and notional values of our derivative instruments were as follows as of June 30, 2021:

Our policy requires that derivatives used for hedging purposes be designated and effective as a hedge of the identified risk exposure at the inception of the contract. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains or losses from the change in fair value measurement of our derivative instruments each reporting period and the related income tax expense or benefit. Changes in the fair value measurements of the derivative instruments and the related income tax expense or benefit are reflected as adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the actual hedged expense is incurred or until the hedge is terminated at which point the unrealized gain (loss) is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current earnings. The estimated accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2021 that is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months
is $1.2 million. There were no ineffective portions of our interest rate swap derivatives during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. See Note 12 for a summary of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component.
