PDTC Cookie Policy.
This cookie policy explains what cookies are, different types of cookies, how we use them and how to control your cookies.
In Section 8 of our Privacy Statement we state that we use cookies. By continuing to use our site and our services, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes described in this policy.
What are cookies and why do we use them?
Most websites you visit use cookies to improve your online experience – and we are no different. Essentially, they are small text files, stored in your browser or on your hard drive, that allow us to differentiate between you and all our other visitors.
There are many benefits to this. For example, every time you visit our site we can log you in and keep you logged in as you move around the site.
What are the different types of cookies?
Session cookies.
These cookies are only stored on your device (which may mean a desktop computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone) during a single visit (a ‘browser session’). They do not do anything unless you are actively browsing and they are deleted as soon as you close your browser.
e.g. a session cookie allows you to move from page to page without having to repeatedly log into the site.
Persistent cookies.
These remain on your device until they are set to expire or you choose to delete them from your browser cache. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.
e.g. a persistent cookie allows us to remember you when you return, helps us analyse your behaviour while on the website and lets us identify any problems.
Both session cookies and persistent cookies are first party cookies.
No data is shared or given to a third party. These cookies do not identify you, or store personal information, just the action of your use of our website.
Further information about cookies and how to manage and delete them can be found at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
