About Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer by a website’s server, and only that server will be able to retrieve or read the contents of that cookie. Each cookie is unique to your web browser. It allows a website to remember things, such as your preferences.

Most websites you visit will use cookies in order to improve your user experience by enabling that website to ‘remember’ you, either for the duration of your visit (using a ‘session cookie’) or for repeat visits (using a ‘persistent cookie’). Cookies make the interaction between you and the website faster and easier. If a website doesn’t use cookies, it will think you are a new visitor every time you move to a new page on the site – so for example, it won’t be able to keep you logged in when you navigate to a new page.

Centiam does not control the dissemination of these cookies and you should check the relevant third party’s website for more information.
