When we provide services, we want to make them easy, useful and reliable. Where services are delivered on the internet, this sometimes involves placing small amounts of information on your device. These include small files known as cookies.

These pieces of information are used to improve services for you through, for example:

enabling a service to recognise your device so you don't have to give the same information several times during one task
recognising that you may already have given a username and password so you don't need to do it for every web page requested
measuring how many people are using online services, to help us improve the website.

By modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set or to reject all cookies. However, you should be aware that if cookies are rejected you will not be able to use some of the online services provided by this site. For more information on cookies please visit the 'about cookies' website.

Below is a list of cookies used on our website, grouped by what they do:

Cookies for storing your preferences

We use various cookies to store some details you enter and choices you make so that we do not have to ask you for them every time you visit a page that needs them.

Cookie name	Purpose
.SSOAuthRedbridgeiLive	Stores an encrypted authentication key that allows you to seamlessly login across the family of Redbridge i sites. It expires when you close the browser unless you selected the "stay logged in on this computer" option in which case it will expire after a year.
ASP.NET_SessionId	Keeps a record of your current Redbridge i session so that we can provide consistent functionality across the site. It expires when you close your browser.
RedbridgeIV3LiveDesktop	Stores the layout of your Redbridge i home page modules. It expires after two years
RedbridgeIV3LivePref	Stores your Redbridge i preferences and location details so that you do not have to provide them every time the site needs them. It expires after two years.

Cookies for improving service by measuring traffic

We use a Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, in order to find out how visitors interact with Redbridge i so we can improve it. Information is collected anonymously and website trends are reported without identifying individual visitors.

Cookie name	Purpose
__utma	Keeps track of the number of times a visitor has been to the site, when their first visit was, and when their last visit occurred. It expires after two years.
__utmb and __utmc	The B and C cookies work together to calculate how long a visit takes. __utmb takes a timestamp of the exact moment in time when a visitor enters a site, while __utmc takes a timestamp of the exact moment in time when a visitor leaves a site. __utmb expires at the end of the session. __utmc waits 30 minutes, and then it expires. __utmc has no way of knowing when a user closes their browser or leaves a website, so it waits 30 minutes for another pageview to happen, and if it doesn't, it expires.
__utmz	Keeps track of where the visitor came from, what search engine was used, what link was clicked on, what keyword was used, and where they were in the world when the website was accessed. It expires after six months.
