Cookies allow you to proceed through many pages of a site  quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit.  These only last for as long as the session (usually the current visit to a website or a  browser session). 

Functionality cookies:

These cookies allow our services to remember choices you make,  such as: 

o remembering your username, preferences, and settings.
