What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file made up of letters and numbers, which is downloaded onto your computer, smartphone or mobile internet device when you access a website. They are used by almost all websites. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device so it will remember your preferences when you visit that website again; they also help by letting you navigate around the website and its pages and improve the user experience. They can also be used to analyse traffic to the website.

Cookies are either set by the website you are visiting (first party cookies), or by a website other than the one you are browsing (third party cookies) – these are often advertisers or Facebook/social media pixels.

The length of time a cookie stays on your computer/device depends on whether they are ‘session cookies’ or ‘persistent cookies’. Session cookies are only on your computer whilst you remain on the website you are visiting, when you exit the website, the cookie is automatically deleted from your computer/device. Persistent cookies are stored on your computer/device after you exit the website, they are used to remember your preferences the next time you visit the website.
