What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data contained in text files that are stored on your computer or other Internet-enabled device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to ‘remember’ you and your preferences, either for a single visit (with a ‘session cookie’) or for multiple repeat visits (with a ‘persistent cookie’). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors to websites, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in, or choice of language. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as ‘first party cookies’), or by parties other than the website owner, such as those that serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (these are known as ‘third party cookies’).
Most browsers will allow you to control how cookies are handled, whether to accept or deny them, and how long to store them on your computer. Browsers also enable you to delete cookies at any time. All browsers do this differently, but if you have concerns about your privacy and security with regards to cookies, then please look for the ‘help’ documentation for your particular browser.
