Detailed cookie information


What is a cookie?

Also known as browser cookies or tracking cookies, cookies are small, often encrypted text files typically made up of numbers and letters, that are placed on your computer or device by most websites that you visit. Located in browser directories, cookies are then sent back to originating websites on each subsequent visit.


By themselves, cookies do not pose any risk, they do not contain viruses in any form and they do not spy on your PC content or compromise security. They are generally used to make online surfing faster and easier.


Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device. Cookies store information about a visitor’s preferences, record user-specific information on which pages the user access or visit, enabling web page content to be customised based on visitor’s browser type and other information that the visitor sends via their browser.


Cookies can be First Party (set by the website being visited), Third Party (set by a third-party for example Google), Flash or Local storage.


What are cookies used for?

Cookies are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. The use of cookies and similar technologies has been commonplace for some time and cookies are particularly important in the provision of many online services. Most websites and third parties, such as advertisers, often like to record the users' online interaction so they can provide personalised content, such as adverts, based on that recorded information. Websites can use a number of methods to collect user-specific data, including through the use of cookies. Operators sometimes pass on information stored in cookies to advertisers in order that they can serve behavioural adverts based on an individual users' activity and apparent interests.


Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit: www.allaboutcookies.org

Information on specific cookies used by this website

Globally and in the European Union member states Google sets the following cookies:


DoubleClick & PREF

These cookies aren't recognised and probably perform a custom function for this website.


utma Cookie

A persistent cookie - remains on a computer, unless it expires or the cookie cache is cleared. It tracks visitors. Metrics associated with the Google utma cookie include: first visit (unique visit), last visit (returning visit). This also includes Days and Visits to purchase calculations which afford e-commerce websites with data intelligence around purchasing sales funnels.


utmb & utmc Cookies

These cookies work in tandem to calculate visit length. Google utmb cookie marks the exact arrival time, then Google utmc registers the precise exit time of the user.

Because utmb counts entrance visits, it is a session cookie, and expires at the end of the session, e.g. when the user leaves the page. A timestamp of 30 minutes must pass before Google cookie utmc expires. Given utmc cannot tell if a browser or website session ends. Therefore, if no new page view is recorded in 30 minutes the cookie is expired.


utmz Cookie

Cookie utmz monitors the HTTP Referrer and notes where a visitor has come from, such as a search engine or website with the referrer listed into type (Search engine (organic or cpc), direct, social and unaccounted). From the HTTP Referrer the utmz Cookie also registers, what keyword generated the visit plus geolocation data.

This cookie lasts six months. In tracking terms this Cookie is perhaps the most important as it will tell us about our traffic and helps with conversion information such as what source / medium / keyword to attribute for a Goal Conversion.


utmv Cookie

Google utmv Cookie lasts "forever". It is a persistent cookie. It is used for segmentation, data experimentation and the utmv works hand in hand with the utmz cookie to improve cookie targeting capabilities.
