When the CLPCN provides services, we want to make them easy, useful and reliable; meaning that when services are delivered via the internet, we may require the use of cookies as it helps to provide a better browsing experience, and helps us as an NHS organisation understand how people are using our website (analytics) so we can make improvements accodringly.

This information is generally used to improve services for you through, for example:

• Enabling a service to recognise your device so you don’t have to give the same information several times during one task.
• Recognising that you may already have given a username and password, so you don’t need to do it for every web page requested.
• Measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and there’s enough capacity to ensure they are fast.
