Cookies
A cookie is a small amount of data sent to your computer or
mobile phone from a website. It often includes a unique identifier
and is stored on your device's hard drive. We do not use
cookies to collect information that can be used to identify
you.
Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your
browser's preferences allow it. Your browser is the computer
program you use to access the internet. By default, your browser
will only allow a website to access the cookies it is already sent
to you, and not the cookies sent to you by any other website. This
is to protect your privacy.
