Use of cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They 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. Some cookies are used for advertising, so you are shown adverts that are more personalised to you, based on your previous internet behaviour.

Some examples of cookies could be:

• storing information to personalise the website to your chosen requirements
• a website that sells things may use a cookie to record items you have in a shopping basket
• cookies can be used to record users behaviour on a website, for example to record the pages they have viewed

There are two different types of cookie that can be placed in your browser by a website:
Session cookies are only used for the period you use the website, and are deleted when you close your web browser. A new cookie would then be placed in your web browser if you were to visit the same website again in the future.

Persistent cookies remain in your browser once you have left the site and closed your web browser. The next time you visit the site the information in the cookie will be used to ensure the website works as set up at the previous visit. For example to display certain things on the homepage. Persistent cookies will expire if the website that set them is not visited again within a certain timescale.

Cookies on the Corserv website

We use a number of different cookies on the Corserv website and the sub domains and third party systems we run.

Examples include:

• We use a google analytics cookie on our website and all our online systems to record website usage. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. We collect this information in a way which does not identify anyone, we do not make any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting any of our websites, and we do not share this information with anyone. 

• We use a number of essential session cookies to enable certain parts of the website to function properly.

If you have any questions about the way cookies are used on these sites, or how you may be affected please contact us.
