What is a Cookie?
A Cookie is a small file, or files on your computer, phone, or other device with a browser to save snippets of text for reference by the website you are visiting.
All Cookies have expiration dates in them that determine how long they stay in your browser:
Session Cookies – these are temporary Cookies that expire (and are automatically erased) whenever you close your browser. For example, we use session Cookies to grant access to content and enable commenting (things you have to login to do).
Persistent Cookies – these usually have an expiration date and so stay in your browser until they expire, or until you manually delete them. For example, we use persistent Cookies for functionality including not re-showing the cookie banner when you’ve made your choice. We also use persistent Cookies to better understand usage patterns so that we can improve the site for our customers.
We’ve included more details below to help you understand what kinds of Cookies and other technologies we use.
Other technologies linked to Cookies

These pixels or tags can be used to retrieve information such as your device type or operating system, IP address, time of visit, etc. (Please see our Privacy Policy for more details on the types of information that may be collected.) They are sometimes used to create or access the Cookies on your browser but are not Cookies themselves. Only Cookies which you can control will appear in the Cookie consent tool.
