Cookies and Website Traffic Analysis
When users enter Scotland's Culture their computers will automatically
be issued with ‘cookies’. Cookies are text files which
identify users’ computers to the Scotland's Cultures server.
The website then creates "session" cookies to store
some of the preferences of users moving around the website, e.g.
retaining a text-only preference. Cookies in themselves do not
identify individual users but identify only the computer used
and they are deleted on departure from the website.
Many websites do this to track traffic
flows, whenever users visit those websites.
Users have the opportunity to set their
computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie
is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of
these means that certain personalised services cannot then be
provided to that user.
