These small files are known as cookies and cannot be used to identify you personally.
2. What are Cookies?
Cookies are pieces of information used to improve services for you through:
• Enabling a service to recognise your device so you don’t have to provide the same information multiple times during one task.
• Recognising that you may have already provided a username and password, so you don’t need to do so for every web page request.
• Measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and ensure they are fast enough to meet demand.
• Analysing anonymized data to help us understand how people interact with our services so we can make them better.
You can manage these small files and learn more about them at All About Cookies. There’s also further information on how to remove cookies at About Cookies: How to Control Cookies.
