When we provide services, we aim to make them easy, useful, and reliable. This sometimes involves placing small amounts of information on your computer. These are called ‘cookies’.

Cookies cannot be used to identify you personally and are used to improve services for you. For example, they help by:

• Letting you navigate between pages efficiently
• Enabling a service to recognise your computer, so you don’t have to re-enter the same information during one task
• Recognising that you have already given a username and password, so you don’t need to enter them for every page requested
• Measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and have enough capacity to ensure fast performance
