What is a Cookie?

Sylva Foundation cookies and how to reject cookies
It is important to note that if you change your settings and block certain cookies, you will not be able to take full advantage of some features of Sylva Foundation services, and we might not be able to provide some features you have previously chosen to receive. Change your settings above.
How does Sylva Foundation use cookies?
Information supplied by cookies can help us to understand the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with a better user experience. It also helps us recognise when you are signed in to any account you may have with us, and to provide a more personalised experience. For example, if on a previous visit you went to our forestry pages, we might find this out from your cookie and highlight forestry information on your second and subsequent visits. Sylva Foundation uses this type of information to help improve the services it provides to its users. Certain areas of the myForest website may use cookies for a specific reason - for example, to help online tools function effectively on your device.
