What are cookies?

Cookies are small, usually randomly encoded, text files that help you navigate through a website. They are generated on the sites that you visit, as well as by third-parties that websites work with, to manage key elements of their business-user functionality. In most cases they do not involve or use personal information in any way.

Cookies are used extensively online and have become part of the fabric and make-up of what has made the internet work effectively for consumers and businesses. Without cookies, many areas of functionality (for example, user logins, shopping baskets and other customisation features) would not work as expected.

Further information on cookies can be found at the EU Internet Handbook or AllAboutCookies.org 

Cookie types

  • Session cookies
  • Persistent cookies

Session cookies are temporary cookies that are not stored on your computer or mobile device. They are used to understand, for example, if a user interacting with our company website is a new visitor or a visitor returning as part of the same browsing session. These session cookies are erased when you close your browser, or after extended inactivity.

Persistent cookies are those placed on your computer or mobile device for a pre-determined length of time when you visit this site. They are used for example, to understand (through Google Analytics) what areas of our websites and platform are most popular, and how customers and users engage with them.
