2. What cookies are
What cookies are Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. For example, cookies are used to remember users’ preferences and to help navigate between pages effi- ciently. A cookie does not by itself tell us your name or email address. However, the identifiers cookies contain, and the information we collect alongside them, can constitute personal data under applicable data protection law. We handle that information in accordance with our Privacy Policy, and we do not share it with any third party other than as stated there. We may also automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address and the page you requested. Cookies will typically contain details such as the domain from which the cookie has come, a value which is usually a random unique number used as an identifier, and the lifetime — the expiry — of the cookie. What will a cookie do for me? Almost every website that offers advanced features such as online ordering or quoting and custom content uses cookies. Each website uses its own cookies, which essentially means that the cookies used by one site cannot be used by another.
