Use of “Cookies”

The site uses “cookies” (i.e., a small data file that is written to a user’s hard drive) to help track how the site is being used. The cookies do not include personal information, but are unique to each user and include a randomly generated identification number that enables the PdNCDC’s server to identify the visitor. Users benefit from the cookies, because they do not have to provide usernames and passwords for each visit, and they may receive personalized services as requested at the time of registration.  The server does not read any data on the user’s hard drive except the cookie file. For popular Internet browsers, the user has the option of refusing to accept cookies. Refer to browser documentation for more information on how to select options concerning cookies. Cookies need not be accepted in order to use the web site. However, without cookies, certain of the automated functions and features of the site may not be available to you.
