WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHY DO WE USE THEM?
When you use the icuclean.co.uk site, your browser may alert you to the fact that a cookie is being sent to your PC. Without a session, web sites have no "memory" and you would not be able to remain logged in when you moved between pages, as each click would treat you as a completely new visitor. Nor would you be able to have a shopping basket as there would be no mechanism to connect you to a previous website action.
