The cookie is stored on the user's machine, but it is not an executable program and cannot do anything to your machine. Whenever a web browser requests a file from the same web server that sent the cookie, the browser sends a copy of that cookie back to the server along with the request. In this way, the server knows you have visited before and can co-ordinate your access to different pages on its web site. A server cannot find out a name or e-mail address, or anything about a user's computer, by using cookies. IP Australia uses cookies to obtain session details for access to parts of our sites.
Cookies are essential in providing a seamless access to our online databases.
Cookie information is not stored or collected by IP Australia. IP Australia does not maintain a record of enquiries to the database search engines, or the results obtained by the search request. We will only record your e-mail address if you send us a message. It will only be used for the purpose for which you have provided it and will not be added to a mailing list. We will not use your e-mail address for any other purpose and will not disclose it without your consent.
