What do Cookies Do?
Cookies help to make the interaction between users and websites faster and easier. For example, they can remember your preferences, login details or information you supply as you move through an application process. What cookies don’t do is store any personal or confidential information about you.
Cookies are important for things like online shopping – for example they’ll remember the items in your shopping basket and make sure they stay there until you complete your transaction.
When you revisit a website, cookies also help the site to remember your preferences or registration details.
We also use cookies to help us understand how our customers use our website, for example the pages customers visit and the links they click on. This helps us make improvements and understand what visitors to our site are interested in.
Some of our cookies enable us to learn which advertisements bring customers to our website. This helps us manage our advertising spend by only using adverts and websites that prove to be effective.
Are Cookies Safe?
Yes, cookies are small text files. They can’t look into your computer or read any personal information or other material on your hard drive. Cookies can’t carry viruses or install anything harmful on your computer.
Why Should I Keep Cookies Switched On?

The Types of Cookies we Use
Like most large websites, The Marple Band website uses session cookies and persistent cookies. Neither session cookies nor persistent cookies collect any personally identifiable information.
Session Cookies
We use session cookies, which last only for the duration of your visit (your ‘session’) and are deleted when you close your browser. These simply enable us to identify that the same person is moving from page to page.
Persistent Cookies
We also use certain cookies that are persistent. These remain on your computer after you have visited our site, meaning the site can remember your settings when you revisit us.

As well as using cookies from our advertising partners, from time to time we may also embed external content from other third party websites within our website. These include sites such as Facebook and Twitter, whose cookie usage policy you can view on their own websites.
