What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files set on a site to help operate and support its functionality. They collect and store certain information about the way a site is used, and can help a site integrate with other third party sites. Pixels and tags are similar technologies. For convenience, we refer to all of these as cookies.
Cookies can be set by us or, in some cases, by external third party services who we allow to run on our site, which may include analytics. Cookies set by us are referred to as 'first party cookies', whereas cookies set by external third party services allowed to run on our site are referred to as 'third party cookies'.
We may also refer to 'session cookies', which expire at the end of a user's browsing session (usually when a user exits their browser), and 'persistent cookies', which are stored on your device for a longer period and in between sessions.
If you are based in the UK, there is lots of useful information about cookies on the Information Commissioner's website .
