| NAYLOR_PRIVACY | Stores privacy preferences. |
| BTI_AUTH_DATA | Encrypted information used for keeping a user "logged in". |

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can
measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which

Performance Cookies List
All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.
| Google Analytics | |
| __utma | A persistent cookie - remains on a computer, unless it expires or the cookie cache is cleared. It tracks visitors. Metrics associated with the Google __utma cookie include: first visit (unique visit), last visit (returning visit). This also includes Days and Visits to purchase calculations which afford ecommerce websites with data intelligence around purchasing sales funnels. |
| __utmb & utmc |
These cookies work in tandem to calculate visit length. Google __utmb cookie demarks the exact arrival time, then Google __utmc registers the precise exit time of the user.
Because __utmb counts entrance visits, it is a session cookie, and expires at the end of the session, e.g. when the user leaves the page. A timestamp of 30 minutes must pass before Google cookie __utmc expires. Given__utmc cannot tell if a browser or website session ends. Therefore, if no new page view is recorded in 30 minutes the cookie is expired. This is a standard 'grace period' in web analytics. Ominture and WebTrends among many others follow the same procedure. |
| __utmt & __utmt_c2 | This cookie lives for 10 minutes and is used to throttle our request rate to Google. |
| __utmz | Cookie __utmz monitors the HTTP Referrer and notes where a visitor arrived from, with the referrer siloed into type (Search engine (organic or cpc), direct, social and unaccounted). From the HTTP Referrer the __utmz Cookie also registers, what keyword generated the visit plus geolocation data. This cookie lasts six months. In tracking terms this Cookie is perhaps the most important as it will tell you about your traffic and help with conversion information such as what source / medium / keyword to attribute for a Goal Conversion. |
| _ga | Used to distinguish users. |
| _gat | Used to throttle request rate. |
| _gat_b | Used to throttle request rate. |
| _gid | Used to distinguish users. |
