If you register on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you register again. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit any registration page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Clearing cookies and cache

Using a browser, including Chrome, Safari and Firefox, saves some information from websites in its cache and cookies.

After you clear cache and cookies:

  • Some settings on sites get deleted. For example, if you were signed in, you’ll need to sign in again.

  • Cookies are files created by the websites you visit. They make your online experience easier and faster by saving browsing data. This browsing data can become older and outdated information.
  • Your cache will remember parts of web pages, like images, to help them open faster during your next visit.
