This policy explains how cookies are used on the MB8 site, what information they can record, and what you can do about them.
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on the device you are using. In general, the file holds a short identifier rather than personal details, and the site reads that identifier the next time you visit. This is how a browser can be recognised as the same browser from one page to the next, or from one session to the next.
Cookies are a standard part of how modern websites work, and the wider account of how we handle member information is in our privacy policy. They are set by the site you are visiting and, in some cases, by service providers acting on that site’s behalf.
We use cookies for several practical reasons.
Depending on the cookie, the information collected may include:
Cookies also allow us to recognise a returning visitor, so that the site does not have to treat every visit as a first visit.
Cookies on our site are set either by us or by service providers we have authorised to act on our behalf. Where a provider sets a cookie in connection with our site, it is doing so to support the functions described above, not for its own unrelated purposes.
You are in control of cookies at the browser level. Every major browser lets you block cookies, delete cookies that have already been stored, or ask to be warned before a new one is set. The controls sit in the browser’s settings or preferences, usually under a privacy or site data heading, and they can be changed at any time.
There is a trade-off. Because some cookies exist so that the site can recognise your browser, blocking or clearing them may stop parts of the site from behaving as expected. As a general rule, staying signed in between pages or between visits depends on this kind of cookie, so you may be asked to log in again more often, or find that a feature does not load. Blocking cookies does not delete your MB8 account or any information already held on it.
Clearing cookies can also be a sensible step on a shared or public device, since it removes the identifiers a later user’s browser would otherwise still hold.
We may update this policy as the site develops or as the way we use cookies changes. The version published here is the one that applies, so it is a good idea to check it again if cookies matter to you.
If you have a question about cookies on our site, or about how any of the information above applies to your account, our support team is reachable through Live Chat at any hour. You can also return to the homepage to continue where you left off.
