SF uses Cookies to:
(a) create a specific log-in session for a visitor to a SF Website in order that page requests by that visitor are delivered in an effective, secure and consistent manner;
(b) recognize when a visitor to a SF Website has visited before; this means we can identify the number of unique visitors we receive to the website and allows us to make sure we have enough capacity for the number of users that we get;
(c) customize elements of the promotional layout and/or content of the pages of the website;
(d) store your product selections to the shopping basket;
(e) improve the Website(s) and learn which parts are most popular to visitors. To do this, we gather statistical information about how our visitors use the website(s) including device-specific data such as the IP address of the device (collected and stored in an anonymized format); the device screen size; the device type and browser information; country of location; and the preferred language used to display the website(s). Our servers also automatically record information including the referring domain; the pages visited; and the date and time when website(s) pages were accessed.
(f) Gather information through our advertising partners, about the pages on the SF website(s) that you visit, and also other information about other websites that you visit, so as to place you in an “interest segment”. This information is then used to serve interest-based advertisements which it is believed will be targeted to your interests.
