Mmmm Cookies, The Chocolate Chip Ones Are To Die For!
But Our Cookies Are A Little Bit Different...
Do We Use Cookies?
Yes we do, they go quite well with a really good double espresso or a decent cup of tea. As to our website cookies they have a completely different function.
Website cookies are small files that a website transfers to your computers hard drive through your web browser (if you allow cookies) that enables the sites to recognize and capture and remember certain information.
For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart as well as help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services.
Cookies Are For Sharing!
We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.
We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.
Our cookies serve no other purpose than to enhance your website experience, they are no threat, in fact they are darn well cool!
Can I Refuse Cookies?
I love cookies, soft, crumbly and so satiating! I could never resist one. But, you may choose to resist our cookies (the non chocolate website ones of course!)
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser.
Cookies Are Good For You!
Cookies, the chocolate chip ones, are good for you..at least I believe so! But our website cookies can also be good for you (and they are guaranteed ZERO calories!)
If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your site experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly.
