Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us improve the way our websites work (e.g. by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily). These track information about visits to the websites so that we can make improvement and report our performance. For example: analyze visitor and user behavior so as to provide more relevant content or suggest certain activities. These cookies also collect information about how visitors use the websites, which site the user came from, the number of each user’s visits and how long the user stays on the websites. We might also use analytics cookies to test new pages or features to see how users react to them.


Preference Cookies

Preference cookies are used to provide services or to remember choices you make so we can personalize content for you (e.g. by remembering your username, choice of language or region). These preferences are remembered, through the use of the persistent cookies, and the next time you visit the websites you will not have to set them again.


Session Cookies

These are cookies which associate the website to the user. It is a unique key (combination of string and numbers) which is generated every time you login and it is removed everytime you log out. When you close the session (browser window) without logging out, and you open the website site again, the website identifies you using this session key and takes you into your profile page without having to login again. When we make a call to the server using HTTP requests, the server identifies you using this key because it was generated from the server in the first place when you logged in with your credentials.
