Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored by a user's web browser on the user's hard drive. Cookies can remember what information a user accesses on one web page to simplify subsequent interactions with that web site by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user's transactions on related web pages. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can change your browser to prevent the browser from accepting cookies. Additionally, you will be asked to accept, and given the option to decline, any cookies other than the essential and functional cookies when visiting the Site for the first time If you reject cookies, you may still use the Site, but your ability to use some areas and features/functions of the Site may be limited.
