What are cookies?

A cookie is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. Each time you return to the same website, your browser retrieves and sends the relevant cookie(s) to the website’s server. 

First party cookies are cookies set by the website you’re visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.

Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.

Cookies help us to improve our website and to deliver a better and more personalized service, for instance by storing information about your preferences and allowing us to recognize you when you return to our website.

Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Our Website

We also use the third-party service Google Analytics. 

Google Analytics is a simple, easy-to-use tool that helps website owners measure how users interact with website content. As a user navigates between web pages, Google Analytics provides website owners JavaScript tags (libraries) to record information about the page a user has seen, for example the URL of the page.

 

The Google Analytics JavaScript libraries use HTTP cookies to "remember" what a user has done on previous pages / interactions with the website. 

_ga

  • Used to distinguish users.

  • It expires in 2 years.

_gid    

  • Used to distinguish you.

  • It expires in 24 hours.

_gat    

  • Used to throttle request rate. If Google Analytics is deployed via Google Tag Manager, this cookie will be named _dc_gtm_<property- id>.

  • It expires in 1 minute.

AMP_TOKEN           

  • Contains a token that can be used to retrieve a Client ID from AMP Client ID service. Other possible values indicate opt-out, inflight request or an error retrieving a Client ID from AMP Client ID service.

  • It expires in 30 seconds to 1 year.

_gac_<property-id>           

  • Contains campaign related information for you. If we have linked our Google Analytics and Google Ads accounts, Google Ads website conversion tags will read this cookie unless we/you opt-out.

  • It expires in 90 days.

__utma          

  • Used to distinguish you and sessions. The cookie is created when the javascript library executes and no existing __utma cookies exists. The cookie is updated every time data is sent to Google Analytics.

  • It expires in 2 years from set/update.

  • It expires in 30 mins from set/update

__utmc          

  • Not used in ga.js. Set for interoperability with urchin.js. Historically, this cookie operated in conjunction with the __utmb cookie to determine whether you were in a new session/visit.

  • It expires in the end of browser session.

__utmz          

  • Stores the traffic source or campaign that explains how you reached our website. The cookie is created when the javascript library executes and is updated every time data is sent to Google Analytics.
