Amongst other things, Advertisers use cookies to understand how you and others are using their site, to identify repeat visitors, and to determine the paths visitors take on their site. They also use cookies to determine whether you visited their site from a particular Internet link or advertisement.
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but it is possible to change your browser setup to allow you to control whether you will accept cookies, reject cookies, or to notify you each time a cookie is sent to you.
