What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when a website is loaded on your browser.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting, in which case they are known as first-party cookies. These are mostly necessary for the website to function the way we intended it to, but you can find out exactly what each cookie does below.

Cookies can also be set by external services a website may use, and these are known as third-party cookies. We like to be in control of data here, so we only sparingly use third party cookies.

There’s also a difference between persistent cookies (cookies saved on your computer that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser), and session cookies (which are deleted when you quit your browser).

How do we use cookies?

We can then analyze what works and where we can improve our website, an essential task because our website is the main access point to our small business.
