Cookies

The web site makes limited use of cookies. Their only purpose is to provide tracking of user sessions. In a dynamic application, the server needs to know which user is making each page request and to keep track of which users are logged in, etc. It does this by writing a single ID number to each client browser - there is no user information such as names, IP addresses, etc, sent with the cookie. Every time the browser requests a page from the web site it sends this ID number cookie back to the server, which the server uses to identify the session. Once the browser is closed the cookie is destroyed and there is no permanent record left on the client computer of that browser/user having visited the site. Those users who have cookies rejected by default in their web browser must configure it to accept them in order to use the online courses properly.
