Anonymous visitor statistics cookies
We use cookies to compile visitor statistics such as how many people
have visited our website, what type of technology they are using (e.g.
Mac or Windows which helps to identify when our site isn’t working as it
should for particular technologies), how long they spend on the site,
what page they look at etc. This helps us to continuously improve our
website. These so called “analytics” programs also tell us if , on an
anonymous basis, how people reached this site (e.g. from a search
engine) and whether they have been here before helping us to put more
money into developing our services for you instead of marketing spend.
A cookie is simply a technology for remembering something about you.
Without cookies, a website is like a goldfish who loses its memory every
time you visit a new page. Once you visit a new page, it doesn’t
remember who you are. Now this can be a good and a bad thing. Without
any memory, a website can’t do a lot of stuff. It can’t let you log in,
because it forgets who you are. It can’t let you buy anything, because
it forgets what you’re buying.
But it also means it can’t track you. Some websites use cookies to
remember what you do on their website, and to target ads at you. And
some of those websites share their cookies, so that ads on one website
know what you liked on another. This has scared a lot of people. Cookies
aren’t automatically good or bad, but it’s worth understanding what you
can do about them.
You can turn them off completely, which is a bit like banning all music
to prevent another Justin Bieber album. Many websites simply won’t work.
A better option would be to turn off 3rd party cookies, which will stop
most websites from sharing information about you. Some browsers – like
Safari – do this automatically. And finally, you can take a deeper
look into any websites which concern you. Most websites have policies
that explain what they do, if you care to look.
Well over 90% of websites use cookies. Cookies aren’t automatically good
or bad, but it’s worth understanding what you can do about them. When you click through to one of our
associate stores, their privacy and cookie policies then come into effect, and you may
access them through links on their websites. We do check out their
policies, and we will NOT recommend, or list a website which does not
have reasonable and standard policies.
