The cookies do not contain any personal information about users and in themselves only record those areas of the site that have been visited by the computer in question, and for how long. The use of cookies is now widespread by sites in order to track traffic flows. We use cookies to enable us to offer certain time-saving features to our users such as, one-time log in, global-site shopping cart functionality and pre-populating name and address fields. If a user sets up his browser to reject the cookie, he or she may still use the site although functionality will be impaired. You can find out more about the use of cookies on www.cookiecentral.com.
