Cookies
A
cookie consists of information sent by a web server to a
web browser, and stored by the browser. The information
is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests
a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify
and track the web browser.
We
may use both “session” cookies and “persistent”
cookies on the network service(s). We will use the session
cookies to keep track of you whilst you navigate the network
service(s). We may use the persistent cookies, JavaScript,
or html code to enable our network service(s) to recognise
you when you visit as a registered user.
Session
cookies will be deleted from your computer when you close
your browser. Persistent cookies will remain stored on your
computer until deleted, or until they reach a specified
expiry date.
We
use Google Analytics to analyse the use of fixed internet
website traffic and Bango Analytics to analyse mobile internet
website traffic. The information generated relating to our
network service(s) is used to create reports about the use
of our services for auditing, research and analysis in order
to maintain, protect and improve our services. Google will
store this information. Google's privacy policy is available
at: www.google.com/privacypolicy.html.
Our
affiliates/advertisers/payment service providers may also
send you cookies. These sites may have different privacy
practices and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
Most
browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example,
in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookies by clicking
“Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”,
and selecting “Block all cookies” using the
sliding selector). This will, however, have a negative impact
upon the usability of many websites.
