It contains a simple text code that your browser sends back to our website each time you browse to a new page. This allows the website to look up your specific session and associate data for that session with your browser. The data itself is not stored in your cookie but on the server(s) operating the website.

Each page on our website is generated by a sophisticated Content Management System (CMS). This system provides a number of interactive features where your experience may be tailored according to your past activity on the website.

Such features require the “session cookie” to operate.

  4. The session cookie provides the means for you to take part in votes (or polls) on the website.
  5. The session cookie provides the means to remember that you have submitted a form so that you are not asked to re-submit it.

  7. The session cookie provides the means to remember whether you have ‘like’d our Facebook page.
