What Are
Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often
includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web
site, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to
store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically
designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie
to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to
protect your privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to
access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies
sent to you by other sites. Browsers are usually set to accept
cookies. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies,
you may alter the configuration of your browser to refuse
cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it
is possible that some areas of our site will not function as
effectively when viewed by the users. A cookie cannot retrieve
any other data from your hard drive or pass on computer
viruses.

number of people visiting our Web site and which parts of the
site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback to
constantly improve our Web site and better serve our clients.
