Types of cookies

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type. We use two types of cookies on our website:

Session cookies are temporary cookies which only exist during the time you use the website (or more strictly, until you close the browser after using the website). Session cookies help our website remember what you chose on the previous page, avoiding the need to re-enter information and improve your experience whilst using the website.

Persistent cookies stay on your device after you’ve visited our website. For example, if you tick the ‘Remember my ID’ box when you log onto Online Banking a persistent cookie will be used, so that the website remembers you the next time you use it. Persistent cookies help us identify you as a unique visitor.

We also categorise our cookies to help our customers understand the specific reason for each cookie. These can be read in our Cookie Consent banner.
