F5

The website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc, to extract information from the cookie. The information generated by the cookie about the total usage of the particular website (including your IP address) is transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the United States of America. Google uses this information to assess your use of the website, providing reports on website activity for website operators and other website activity and internet related services. As per Google requirements, it may transfer this information to third parties, if required by law or if third parties process the information on behalf of Google.

Google will not link your IP address with any other data held by Google. utma, utmb, utmc and umtz are the four main cookies set by the Google Analytics service which enable website owners to track visitor behaviour and measure site performance.

__utma

Such cookies last for 2 years by default and differentiates between users and sessions. It is used to calculate new and returning visitor statistics. Every time some data is sent to Google Analytics the cookie is updated. The lifespan of the cookie can be customised by website owners.

__utmb

This cookie has a shorter lifespan which expires after 30 minutes. It determines new sessions and visits. The cookie is updated every time data is sent to Google Analytics. The activity done by a user within the time of 30 minutes is counted as only a single visit, even if the user leaves and then returns to the site. A return after 30 minutes will count as a new visit, but a returning visitor.

__utmc

This cookie is often avoided in most sites but is set to enable interoperability with the older version of Google Analytics code known as Urchin. It was used with the _utmb cookie in the older versions to identify new sessions/visits for returning visitors. When used by Google Analytics this is always a session cookie which is deleted when the user closes their browser. Where it is seen as a persistent cookie it is therefore likely to be a different technology setting the cookie.

__utmz

This cookie tracks where visitors have come to the company site, ie directly browsing to the site, using a search engine (tracks the search term used, etc.), as well as the geographical location of the visitor. It allows Google Analytics to report on how to “credit” a visitor successful e-commerce transaction.

Additionally, there is also a cookie called “F5” which comes from the load balancer, to ensure that the visitor’s session is tied to the web server they initially get directed to in the load balancer rotation.
