Cookies are small strings of text that websites can send to your browser. They cannot retrieve any other data from your hard drive, or obtain your email address. If you are simply browsing Mod24, a cookie may be used to identify your browser as one that has visited the site before. Once you are a registered user of Mod24 we may use cookies so that we can provide personalized information based on preferences you have indicated while using the site. Although you have the ability to modify your browser to either accept all cookies, notify you when a cookie is sent, or reject all cookies, it may not be possible to utilize our Services that require registration if you reject cookies.
