1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a piece of data, a text file with anonymous information that includes a unique


user identification and website name. Tracking technologies such as cookies, beacons, tags


and scripts may be used for analyzing trends.

2. Why use Cookies?

The use of cookies offers an improved online experience by storing your data anonymously.


This can take the form of either a ‘session cookie’ that remembers you for a single visit or a


‘persistent cookie’ for multiple visits.

Certain types of cookies are necessary for a website to function effectively. These are called’

essential’ cookies, while those that optimise a website are termed ‘non-essential’ cookies.

3. What do Cookies do?

A cookie allows easy navigation between pages on a website by learning your preferences.


Many cookies are also used to display advertising content more relevant to you, based on


website activity and approximate location.

When cookies are not used a website will view you as a new visitor each time you visit. This

can slow down your online experience, leading to issues such as your login details being


requested repeatedly, and items added to your basket being lost.

Cookies provided by a website you view are termed ‘first party’ cookies, while cookies from

sites displaying content on another website are known as ‘third party’ cookies.
