What are cookies?

Cookies are small files downloaded to your computer when you visit a website or application. We use cookies along with equivalent server-side technologies to track options selected on iVendi powered websites and to remember your preferences when you return, providing analytics to allow us to improve the experience on our sites. Cookies and similar server-side technology provide a convenience feature to save you time or tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page.

To provide the best user experience, you need to have cookies enabled. If you prefer, you can restrict, block or delete cookies by changing your browser settings but that may mean that the website won't work properly.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case iVendi Limited) are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and when it visits certain other websites.
