Persistent cookies are placed on your computer and stay there when you leave a site. We use them to remember, for example, your login details for the site if you click ‘Remember me’, or any personalization settings you make such as My Profile, or My Account.

First-party cookies are those placed on your computer or device by your browser when you visit a website. This type of cookie is set by Byeau and used for security services such as login and shopping carts, and additional functional services such as personal settings.
Third-party cookies are those placed by other websites or organizations when you visit a site. For example, if you visit website A, organizations B and C who provide services for website A and its users may place a cookie on your computer.

Analytics cookies are set by companies who give us specialized tracking data so that we can improve the way our websites work, and count the number of visitors or gauge the popularity of a particular feature. These cookies do not collect personal information; they allocate a number to identify each individual user and the user’s navigation route through the site is recorded against that number. These analytics cookies expire at the end of any session.
