What are “cookies?
A cookie is a small data file that a Web site stores on your computer’s hard drive after you’ve visited it. Cookies simply identify your browser. They do not retrieve personal data from your hard drive or obtain any information about who you are. At Avenue®, our cookies do not identify a visitor unless she has chosen to register on our site. We use the registration information to recognize a returning visitor and to give her access to the benefits of personalized features and settings. We also use cookies to recognize customer traffic patterns and site usage on an anonymous basis. This information helps us improve the site’s layout and design.
Introduced with Netscape Navigator 1.0 and offered by Internet Explorer 3.0 or later, a cookie is a small string of letters and numbers that a web page requests your web browser to store. This string (we’ll call it the cookie from now on) is sent back to the web page by your browser when you visit again, with the idea that the web page can now remember who you were, and make the page personalized for you on your return. KidsSportsnet.com and many other websites use cookies to remember your preferences and configuration. Cookies poses no security or privacy risk to you, it is simply a reminder so that we can fetch your login information and allow you access to your Control Panel.
A cookie is a small piece of information that’s sent to your web browser along with the webpage you request when you access a particular site. When a cookie arrives, your browser generally saves this information to your hard drive; when you return to that site, some of the stored information will be sent back to the Web server, along with your new request allowing the site to be personalized to you.
