What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to ‘remember’ you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a ’session cookie’) or for multiple repeat visits (using a ‘persistent cookie’). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as ‘first party cookies’), or by other websites who serve up content on that site (‘third party cookies’).
The use of cookies is now standard for most websites. If you are uncomfortable with the use of cookies, you can manage and control them, allowing or blocking them through your browser, including removing cookies and revoke consent by deleting them from your ‘browser history’ (cache) when you leave the site or at any moment.
