What are cookies?

A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Some of our business partners (e.g. advertisers) use cookies that originate from their sites. We have no access or control over those cookies.

How do we use the information we collect from cookies?

As you use this website, the site uses its cookies to differentiate you from other users.
