A cookie is a piece of information in the form of a very small text file that is placed on a user's internet device (mobile phone, computer, tablet).

It is generated by the web server that hosts the website. The information the cookie contains is set by the server and it can be used by that server whenever the user visits the site.

Cookies make the interaction between users and websites faster and easier. Without cookies, it would be very difficult for a website to allow a visitor to fill up a shopping cart or to remember the user's preferences or registration details for a future visit.

Under new EU legislation, the website will also shortly be providing you with the ability to choose whether you would like to accept cookies or not.
