When you access the authenticated parts of this web site, this "Site" stores your login name as a cookie on your machine. A cookie is a very small lightweight file either stored on your machine or simply written to your browser memory. If stored in your browser memory, the cookie is only remembered until you close your browser. Information stored as a "cookie" is therefore either short-lived on your machine ( or lasts until you close your browser). If stored on your machine, it is set to last till a certain date and time after which your machine automatically discards it. Cookies are safe standard industry-wide machine-readable files. They are NOT executable programs. Therefore they CANNOT do any harm to your machine or any files stored on your machine, and by design only limited in size to a few kilobytes.
Web services provided to you on this "Site" are significantly customized with the aid of short-lived session cookies to meet your specific business needs and although you may choose to disable your browser's ability to accept cookies, doing so significantly degrades the degree to which you are able to access the high quality web services, our clients have come to expect from Chatham Financial Corporation.
