The cookies we use cannot read or search your computer, smartphone, or web-enabled device to obtain information about you or your family, or read any material kept on your hard drive.

However, this is encrypted so that only Perrenial can read this information. The website that places a cookie owns that cookie. This means only that website and other sites that it has agreed to share information with can read the information stored using a cookie.
We are committed to using cookies fairly and in accordance with applicable privacy rights. Our Privacy Notice can be accessed here.
