Cookies – Cookies are small packets of information created and sent by web servers that are stored on the devices (PC, phone, tablet etc.) of people browsing sites and are called by the site each time the viewer browses a new page on the site. They are used for a number of reasons. To remember settings that users have set or to track page use. They do not contain information that can personally identify the user.
There are two kinds of cookies:
“session” cookies which are stored for the period the user is on the site and deleted when the browser is closed.
“persistent” cookies which are stored on the user’s device until they expire – most cookies will have an expiration date set – or they are deleted by the user.
We use both types of cookies on the site. Most of the “persistent” cookies set by the actual site are set to expire after 1 day. Cookies from third party sites will also be set by visiting here. These are used for the social aspects of the site (posting to various social sites, Facebook, Twitter etc.) and for tracking hits to various pages.

We also use cookies to check if you’re spamming the site, a single session cookie named “bb2_screener_”. This cookie, which expires at the end of the visitor’s browser session, records their IP address and time of their most recent visit to this site. The cookie is sent directly from this site, and not by a third party.
This cookie is to determine whether a request is a spammer who is rotating through different IP addresses. It is therefore used to maintain the security of this site and is not used for marketing purposes.
