What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer or device when you
visit a website. Cookies are used by the majority of sites, and have several different
functions. At a basic level cookies will:
- Allow the site to work properly, and help keep it secure.
- Help to understand how people use a website.
- Make a site easier to use by remembering information that you've entered.
- Improve your experience by showing you information that's relevant to you.
How CCIL uses cookies
CCIL will:
- Remember your CCIL login details (if you ask us to)
- Maintain your CCIL session
- Make sure your CCIL session is secure
- Record pages accessed during your visit and the capability of your web browser
CCIL will not:
- Store your CCIL password
- Store any personally identifiable information related to you
The types of cookies we use
These are divided into three categories:
Session cookies: These cookies let you move around the site and use all of
the website features. Without them, you wouldn't be able to log into CCIL or use
any of its applications. These cookies also help keep your CCIL session secure.
Analytic cookies: These simply help us record details about your site visit,
such as pages visited and browser used.
Persistent cookies: These cookies store your CCIL login details (except your
password), so next time you visit the information is already there for you. This
only happens if you request it.
Consent
By using our website, you're consenting to our use of cookies. You can change your
cookie settings at any time through your browser.
Changing your cookie settings
We recommend that you don't change your cookie settings, as we can't guarantee the
performance of the site if you block some or all cookies. If you do decide to change
them, you can do this through your browser. Each browser works in a different way,
so you'll need to search for 'cookie settings' in your browser's help section to
find out how to do this.
Third Party Cookies
The only third party cookie CCIL uses is a Google Analytics Cookie (see Analytic
cookie above). CCIL uses no other third party cookies and no advertising cookies
of any sort.
