We use these Strictly Necessary cookies to:

• Remember things like information you've entered on order forms when you navigate to different pages in a single web browser session
• Remember the goods and services you ordered when you get to the checkout page
• Identifying you as being signed in and keeping you logged in throughout your visit so that you don't need to sign in each and every time you visit.
• Using our site indicates that you accept the use of 'Strictly Necessary' cookies.

These cookies allow websites and applications to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They do not gather any information about you that could be used for selling advertising or remembering where you've been on the internet, but do help with serving advertising.

Some examples of how we do this include:

• Remembering your preferences and settings.
• Show you when you're logged in to the website

• See how effective our adverts are (we don't use this information to target adverts to you when you visit other websites)
