What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that some websites or web applications store via the browser on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies are widely used in order to make websites or web applications work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the websites or applications.
Some expire at the end of your session; others will remain on your computer for longer. When you return to websites or visit websites that use the same cookies, these cookies and therefore, your browsing device, are recognised.

Cookies do lots of different and useful jobs like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences and generally improve your browsing experience. Cookies can be used to customise areas of online content to be more relevant to you and your interests.

First Party Cookies

First party cookies are set by the specific website or web application you visit ie: the location displayed in the URL window.

Third Party Cookies

Third party cookies are set by third party services that appear on our pages. They are set by the operators of that service and are not in our control. For example, Twitter, Facebook and other advertisers may use the information they obtain from your use of their cookies to track your browser across multiple websites to build a profile of your web surfing or to target advertisements which may be of particular interest to you.
