e-Petitions cookie

INOVEM Inclusionware products only use cookies to store user session and login data. The Adobe ColdFusion framework which generates the web pages uses a set of cookies to store session data. These are CFTOKEN, CFID and JSESSIONID. They contains a unique random-number ID for each visitor (no sensitive data is stored in the cookie itself).

When people login to the site login information is stored as a cookie on their computer; again that only contains a reference to the user, not any actual data about them. All of those cookies only last until the browser window is closed, unless the user has ticked the 'remember me' option on login, in which case they remain permanently - cookies are what does the 'remembering' in that case.

  • Name of cookie: SpiderLogon
    Expires: End of session, or if asked to 'remember my details' the +30 years

    Purpose: Once you have logged on with username and password, to make it easier to log in again if you choose 'Remember me'. This cookie remembers if you want to be remembered.

SNAP Surveys cookie

Some of the interactive on-line surveys we publish on our website use the SNAP software.

A cookie is sometimes set in the survey which saves a small text file, called a Cookie, on a respondent’s computer so that they will be unable to complete any further copies of the questionnaire until the cookie expires, thereby preventing multiple questionnaires from the same respondent.

Occaisionally, but not very often, some of our surveys may be set up so they can be completed in several sessions (not all in one go). In this case partially complete responses are saved using cookies on the respondents computer. In this case cookies would need to be enabled to allow you to save the survey and then subsequently return at a later date or time to complete the survey on the same computer.
