Cookie Policy

Protecting your personal details on our website.

 

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website.  This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive.

We use the following cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website.  These essential cookies are always enabled because our website won’t work properly without them.  They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website, use a shopping cart or make use of e-billing services.  You can switch off these cookies in your browser settings but you may then not be able to access all or parts of our website.

• Analytical or performance cookies. These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it.  This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.

• Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website.  This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).

You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them in the table below:

 

Cookie Title Cookie Name	Purpose
exp_tracker	Tracks the last 5 pages viewed by the user, and is used primarily for redirection after logging in etc. Affects guests and logged in users.
exp_last_visit	Sets the datetime that the user last visited the site, and is set for both guests and logged in users. If not set, is automatically set to 10 years ago. Affects guests and logged in users.
exp_last_activity	Every time the state is updated (the page reloaded) the last activity is set to the current datetime. Used to determine expiry. This is essential for logged in users, but not for guests - it is set for both.
exp_sessionid	A uniquely generated ID that corresponds to the session_id column in the exp_session table. Used when cookie and session are set as the session type. Used only for logged in members.
exp_uniqueid	Matches the unique_id field in the exp_members table. Randomly generated by the FNS class at registration. Used only for logged in members.
exp_userhash	The encrypted password of the currently logged in user. Set if you choose the cookies and session ID method for sessions (cs in your config.) Used only for logged in members.
exp_anon	A flag set by the user to determine if they are listed in the online users.
exp_expiration	Determines the length of the session for a logged in user. There are two options for this cookie: if the user has selected remember me then it is set to 1 year, and if not then it's set to the datetime that the user logged in. Used only for logged in members.
language_set	Set when a language is initially selected remembers which language was selected to display the correct one on revisit - expires in 1 month
