Do we use "cookies"?

To function correctly, the www.baretraps.com site requires your Internet browser to accept cookies.

How we use cookies

In order to provide our customers with powerful functionality, we developed our site using Microsoft's ASP.Net Technology (ASP.Net). One of the benefits of using ASP.Net is that we are able to temporarily store information about your visit (i.e., items in the Shopping Cart, sizes selected, etc.) on our server - a far more efficient method than passing information back and forth over the Internet between our server and your browser.

To keep track of selections and items, a unique session number is assigned each time you access our site. With the use of cookies, ASP.Net keeps track of the items added to the Shopping Cart based on the unique session number assigned to you.

How do cookies work?

Cookies are files containing bits of text information which our server sends to your computer and vice versa (exactly like all other information received when surfing the Internet, except it is not displayed). This allows our server to communicate with your browser and keep track of your unique shopping selections. The text information on your cookie correlates with the unique session number assigned to you when first accessing our site.

Cookies are nothing more than small strings of text and are incapable of doing anything malicious to your computer, and can be read only by the site which originally delivered the cookie. Cookies do not contain any information retrieved from your computer; they only contain information supplied during your specific visit to the site sending the cookie.
