The Information We DONT Collect: Credit⁄Debit Card Information

Cookies: This site sets a Session Identity Cookie on your computer that tracks your visit while you are shopping with us.
This Session ID does not collect any information about you, nor does it store any information about you. The Session ID is an essential element of your shopping experience, and all eCommerce sites use them.
The Session ID ensures that the site keeps a record of what you add to your shopping cart, products that you express an interest in and protects you during the checkout stage. For example: If Mr Jones and Mrs Smith are visiting the site at the same time, the Session ID will ensure that items Mr Jones adds to his cart do not mistakenly get added to Mrs Smiths cart as well (or instead). The Session ID enables each shopper to be served as an identified individual, and prevents errors of this nature. The Session ID will expire when you leave this site, or if you are inactive for longer than 25 minutes.
