Cookie Defined
A “Cookie” is a small file containing an alphanumeric identifier sent by a web server to a web browser and stored on your local computer. The alphanumeric identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a new page from the server, assisting us in providing our services and content to you.
By using our websites and agreeing to our Terms and Conditions and to the Privacy Policy and this Cookie Policy, you agree to our use of Cookies in compliance with the terms set out in this policy.
Types of Cookies
A Cookie can be either a “Persistent Cookie” or a “Session Cookie.”
A Persistent Cookie is stored by a web browser and remains valid until its set expiration date (unless deleted first before that date). A Session Cookie expires and is deleted at the end of the user’s session on the website when the browser is closed.
FIRESPRINGS uses both Persistent Cookies and Session Cookies on our websites.

We also use Cookies to save browsing preferences, to optimize and enhance your browsing experience, and for the management of our own statistics.
The Cookies we use recognize a device when a user or customer visits one of our websites and tracks that person as they navigate the website, enabling them to use features such as a shopping cart, for example.
