Cookies

This page should ease any concerns you may have about our use of cookies.

A cookie is a small text file that's sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit the website again, the cookie allows that site to know that you've visited it before and in some cases tailors what pops up on screen to take account of that fact. They do not hold any personal information and we cannot use them to find out who you are.

A cookie typically contains the name of the website it's from, the lifespan of the cookie and a value. The value is usually a unique code that will only make sense to the website that has issued it.

Cookies remember things like your colour scheme preferences, what's in your shopping cart or that you've already logged in so you don't need to do it for every page you visit on a website. They are also used to measure how people use websites.
