Cookie Statement

 

What is a cookie?

 

A cookie is a text-only string of information that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer's hard disk so that the website can remember who you are. The information stored within that cookie can identify the computer, the pages that are visited and the duration of that visit. Cookies can only be read by the web server from which they were originally deployed, and they do not allow access to the rest of your computer or any other personal information about you. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
