Cookies and Easy Fix Access
Easy Fix Access uses cookies to help provide the best customer experience for our customers and make our website easier for you to use. We are working on making these cookies easy for you to
manage so that these you can understand and control with ease when using Easy Fix Access.
What are cookies?
Unluckily in this context we are not talking about the baked chocolate chip covered treat, these cookies are quite different and are not edible. The Cookies we are talking about are very small text
files containing information that is stored on an internet user’s device when visiting a website. The information a cookie contains, and its purpose is determined by the website operator and can be
used by that web server every time you visit that site. Cookies are used to save time and make visiting web sites more efficient and enjoyable. They can be used for many different reasons – from remembering login information and what is in your online shopping basket, to tailoring online adverts so you see more adverts suited to what you want.
There is lots of guidance out there explaining what cookies are and what they can do. We are going to explain how cookies affect the Easy Fix Access website, but if you want more information you can visit these pages:
