A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer or cellular phone (referred to here as a "device") browser from a website's computer and is stored on your device's hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Many sites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows.

 

Cookies record information about your online preferences and allow us to tailor the websites to your interests. Users have the opportunity to set their devices to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time.

Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.

During the course of any visit to clanmacnabsociety.com, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device.

This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.

Information supplied by cookies can help us to analyze the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with a better user experience.

They gather information regarding the visitors to Clan Macnab Society International sites on our behalf using cookies, log file data and code which is embedded on our website. Clan Macnab Society International uses this type of information to help improve the services it provides to its users. The Clan Macnab Society International strictly requires that third parties do not use any information for their own business or other purposes. Certain other areas of clanmacnabsociety.com may use cookies for a specific reason - for example, to help an online game work effectively on your device. If this is the case, the local terms for that area of the website will make this clear and you should refer to those local terms for additional information.
