What are
cookies? Cookies are pieces of information that a website
transfers to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. The use of cookies is
an industry standard, and many major websites use them to provide useful features for
their customers. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify users, although
they do identify a user's computer. This helps the browser remember information about you,
such as whether you are a guest or a registered member of KnowledgeStor. A cookie is a
simple piece of text; it isn't dangerous to your computer.
Why does KnowledgeStor use cookies?
Cookies identify you and your access privileges on our site. For
example, before we can give you access to your account information, we must confirm who
you are. We do this by using cookies. Therefore, if you delete your cookie, we will not be
able to identify you and you will not have access to your account information through the
navigation menu.
We also use cookies to track usage of the website. We never give out information to
others about individual usage. We may, however, share with our partners and advertisers
aggregated statistical "ratings" information about the use of KnowledgeStor.
