What cookies are used when visiting the Site?
The Company works with or uses several other companies and services to give you the best possible experience when you visit our site. For instance, some of our pages include videos and audio which aren't stored on the Site. These can be useful for explaining the various features of the products we sell, they may help show you around our store, or might include footage of an event we've held.
These are usually hosted by another company - YouTube for instance. By visiting a page which shows a YouTube video, YouTube will also send your browser a cookie to identify your computer, or activate a cookie you're browser has received when watching a YouTube video previously (either via the Site, YouTube's own site or another website). We don't share any information about you with other companies so YouTube et al won't know who you are, but by keeping a record of the videos you've watched, it's possible that the third party will use that information to suggest other videos/photos/songs etc to you that you may find interesting, or use it to show you advertisements based on those videos. Some websites may also guess at your location (usually based on location data, IP address or past searches) which can help the third party tailor advertisements and suggested content.
