WHAT ARE
COOKIES? AND HOW DO WE USE THEM?
A cookie
is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard
drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web
traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web
applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor
its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering
information about your preferences.
We use
traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse
data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to
customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes
and then the data is removed from the system.
Overall,
cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor
which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us
access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you
choose to share with us.
