What are cookies and how do they work?

A cookie is a text file containing information that can be remembered by a web browser between pages. When someone uses a web browser to access the internet the browser can create cookies which are stored on the user’s computer. Cookies are not programs and therefore cannot contain viruses or other malicious software. They are purely a string of text and numbers.

There are two main types of cookies - session cookies and persistent cookies.

Session cookies only last during a single visit. When a user closes the web browser the session cookie information is automatically removed from the computer. The Revel Outdoors website uses session cookies for two purposes:

• To temporarily store a unique identifier for each visitor to the website. This identifier is a random series of letters and numbers and doesn't contain any personal or identifiable information. It is used to help count the number of visitors to our website.
• By the computer system that runs the Revel Outdoors website. This cookie is used as part of the process of sending web pages to the user's web browser and is essential. Persistent cookies are stored by the user's web browser even when the web browser has been closed, so that the next time a user goes back to the website that originally set the cookie, the web site can read information back from the cookie. Persistent cookies have an expiry date which controls when they are automatically deleted. This can be anything from a few minutes to several years.

CannondaleSpares.com use persistent cookies for the following purposes:

• Google Analytics is a system used by many websites to record information about who visits a website. Google set five different cookies with expiry dates ranging from 1 day to 2 years. These cookies are used mainly to differentiate between first time visitors to a website and repeat visitors. They do not contain any personally identifiable information. You can find out more about how Google use cookies at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en
• We use our own cookies to remember which items a customer has put into the basket. By using a persistent cookie for this, a customer can close the web browser and come back to our website and still be able to access items that had been put into the shopping basket on a previous visit. This cookie is essential for the functioning of our website as without it customers would be unable to place items into the shopping basket. The cookie is cleared once an order has been placed.

All cookies used by CannondaleSpares.com are 'first party' cookies. This means that any cookie set on our website can only be read back from the Revel Outdoors website. No other website is able to read or access information from any cookie set by our website. We do not use 'third party' cookies which would permit this sort of behaviour by other websites.

Controlling or deleting cookies

Depending on which web browser you use it is possible to control how cookies are used, or to delete existing cookies from your computer. You can find instructions on how to control the use of cookies, or delete cookies from your computer at http://www.aboutcookies.org

Please remember that if you delete or restrict cookies from our website you may not be able to experience the full benefit of some of the features and services the website has to offer.
