What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a text file that is placed, if consent given, on a server or hard drive for a number of reasons. It allows a company to track the visitors on their website, the device being used, and pages/content visited. At Selectaglaze we analyse this information to improve the website experience for guests visiting the site. None of the data we collect and use to analyse is of a personal manner or identifying in any way. You also have the option to turn cookies off manually via your browser settings or using the banner on the home page of our website; you can change these at a future date if you so wish.
Different types of cookies:
There are different types of cookies, some of which our website uses and others it does not. Details are outlined below for your information.

- Session Cookies
Session cookies either expire immediately or within a few seconds of the user leaving the web browser. Among other uses, these cookies are used by e-commerce websites to remember the product placed in cart by the user, to keep users logged in, and to calculate each user session for analytical purposes.

- Persistent Cookies
As the name suggests, persistent cookies stay on the user’s browser for a very long time. Generally, persistent cookies are required to have an expiration date which could be anything between a second to 10 years unless the user removes them in their browser settings.
