Some of the Town's sub-systems require the use of "cookies". For example, we use cookies when you purchase goods or services over the Internet to save the contents of your "shopping basket" as you proceed from one screen to another. The Town uses "per-session" cookies only. Per-session cookies are small files that are temporarily stored in your computer's memory and can be deleted when you leave the Town's web site.

From time-to-time our site may request information from you via surveys.

If you choose not to participate in surveys, you will still be able to use our site or request services or products from us, except where some material requires a membership or password to protect the users and the architects of the information.
