Cookie Disclosure Statement

We are often asked about our use of cookie technology, which we employ at The Granville Press to allow you to move quickly through our site and provide other benefits. Below you’ll find information describing our most common uses of cookies, which are an inherent part of our production process and have enabled us to better serve you.

What’s a cookie?
A cookie is a small file that is sent to your computer by a site’s server. A cookie can be a record of your visit to a site, including information such as your User Name, registration information, time of last visit, pages viewed, etc. A cookie created by one site’s servers can be retrieved only by that site’s servers. Thus, information in The Granville Press cookies is not accessible to other sites.

Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies to allow you to move quickly through our site, provide information customized to your computer, and to assist in ensuring authorized access to our site in compliance with our terms and conditions. We accomplish this in many ways, using several different cookies. 

Without cookie technology, we would not be able to offer you convenient features such as the ability to store your User Name and Password and save personalized settings.

Other cookies that you may receive during your sessions here are from third-party service providers or third-party network advertisers. These network advertisers may use their own cookies in order to serve ads on our Web sites, ensuring you won’t see the same ads over and over again.

When you view an ad for The Granville Press, our third-party advertising company or othersmay place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. The Granville Press and its’ advertising company also may use Web beacons (invisible images often referred to as pixel tags or
clear GIFs) or other technology to note which pages you visit after viewing ads. The information that is collected through the use of these images or other technology is not personally identifiable and is used only to track response to advertising efforts.

So what’s in it for me?

Here’s a quick rundown of what we see as the biggest advantages of cookies:

Faster, more convenient access.

We won’t have to ask you to identify yourself with each new page requested. We can also deliver to you customized information and store your settings more efficiently.

Better information.

We want to give you features and services in which you’re interested. Through the use of cookies, we can determine which features are most popular with subscribers on an aggregate basis and thus better serve your needs by developing new features and services in response to our analysis of subscribers’ usage.

More efficient ad processing.

Cookies enable us to streamline our ad presentations.

Will the cookies you send me go away?

Some of our cookies are long term. If they weren’t, we’d need to ask you for certain information with each new session, such as your User Name. Some cookies do expire after a short period of time.

Remember, cookies are small files and won’t pose any significant disk-space concerns on your computer.

There are also a number of software and shareware programs available that are designed to periodically purge cookie files from your hard disk. We do not recommend these applications and, as such, cannot address any resulting support issues that may be related to the use of these programs.
