We don't store any credit card details in cookies or any information to identify you personally. We do use information gathered from some cookies to help improve your experience. For example, some of the cookies we use ultimately help us identify potential areas of our site that customers may find difficult to interact with or find confusing and in turn either leave the website or drop out of making a transaction. If we are able to identify these areas, it means we are able to improve them for our customers.
