A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser for a website’s computer and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy), your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you and not the cookies sent to you by other websites. Cookies record information about your online preferences.

When you use our website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your computer. Cookies enable website publishers to analyse data, for example to find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left on the last visit. Many websites do this in order to track online traffic flows. Information supplied by cookies can help Lawrence Walsh Limited to provide you with a better online user experience and assist us to evaluate the profile of our visitors.
