Cookie Use

Like many services, the only cookies in use on our site are for Google Analytics – first-party cookies to track visitor interactions. We may collect anonymous information about your computer, including your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and reports on how visitors use our site. This is statistical data about our viewers’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.

Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. These cookies are used to store information, such as the time that the current visit occurred, whether the visitor has been to the site before and what site referred the visitor to the web page.

Google Analytics collects information anonymously. It reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics without affecting how you visit our site – for more information on opting out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites you use, visit this Google page.
