World News Media uses cookies and analytic tools across our websites to improve performance and assist us in enhancing the user experience. The following information outlines cookie usage, our recommendations, and what can be done to manage their use.

What are cookies?

Cookies are text files which the majority of websites put on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you first visit a site or page. These cookies are used for a range of things but will generally assist the website in remembering usernames; logins; preferences, such as font sizes; and so on.

Across the Internet cookies essentially perform four different functions. They can be broken down into the following categories.

Essential cookies: these are necessary for the correct operation of some websites. They allow websites to remember login names, registered users and so forth.

Performance cookies: These are used to analyse how visitors use a website. They help identify pages visited across a website; durations, including time spent on specific pages; and locations. This information is then used to help refine the viewing experience for users, improve performance and serve relevant content.

Functional cookies: These allow websites to remember preferences such as font sizes and layout options.

Advertising cookies: Advertisers use these to serve advertisements that are believed to be relevant to you and your interests.
