However, they are also used for other purposes like performance analysis, website statistics and advertising targeting. This website uses Statcounter for website statistics and analysis; this entails the use of a performance cookie from Statcounter but no personal information is collected.

Here is a breakdown of the common classifications:-

1) Strictly Necessary. These cookies are essential for the website to function, for you to navigate. Without these you will not be able to use the site. For example, shopping carts would not function without these.
