| OptanonConsent | This cookie is set by the cookie compliance solution from OneTrust. It stores information about the categories of cookies the site uses and whether visitors have given or withdrawn consent for the use of each category. This enables site owners to prevent cookies in each category from being set in the users browser, when consent is not given. The cookie has a normal lifespan of one year, so that returning visitors to the site will have their preferences remembered. It contains no information that can identify the site visitor. | 1 Year |

It is set after visitors have seen a cookie information notice and in some cases only when they actively close the notice down.

They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these types of Cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

_hjFirstSeen | Identifies a new user's first session on a website, indicating whether or not Hotjar's seeing this user for the first time. | Session |
_hjSessionUser_1953442 | Hotjar cookie that is set when a user first lands on a page with the Hotjar script. It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behaviour in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID. | A few seconds |
_hjSession_1953442 | A cookie that holds the current session data. This ensues that subsequent requests within the session window will be attributed to the same Hotjar session. | A few seconds |
_hjTLDTest | When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the _hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed. | Session |
_hjAbsoluteSessionInProgress | This cookie is used by HotJar to detect the first pageview session of a user. This is a True/False flag set by the cookie. | Session |
_hjIncludedInSessionSample_1953442 | Checks to see if the Hotjar Tracking Code can use cookies. | Session |
| _ga | This cookie name is associated with Google Universal Analytics - which is a significant update to Google's more commonly used analytics service. This cookie is used to distinguish unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier. It is included in each page request in a site and used to calculate visitor, session and campaign data for the sites analytics reports. By default it is set to expire after 2 years, although this is customisable by website owners. | 2 Years |
| _ga_xxxxxxxxxx | This cookie is installed by Google Analytics. The cookie is used to calculate visitor, session, campaign data and keep track of site usage for the site's analytics report.
