Cookies
When we provide services, we want to make them easy, useful and reliable. Where services are delivered on the internet, this sometimes involves placing small amounts of information on your device, for example, computer or mobile phone. These are known as cookies; they often include an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a web site’s computers and stored on your computer’s hard drive.
You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set.
However, if you reject all cookies, you may not be able to use our products or services that require you to “log in” and you may not be able to take full advantage of all our offerings.
These cookies are used to improve services for you, for example, by:
- enabling a service to recognise your device so you don’t have to give the same information several times during one task;
- recognising that you may already have given a username and password so you don’t need to do it for every web page requested;
- measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and there’s enough capacity to ensure they are fast;
- analysing anonymised data to help us understand how people interact with Woodlands Group of Churches website so we can make it better
