Use of Cookies

For example, if you personalize The Neighbourhood Group Community Services’ pages, or register with The Neighbourhood Group Community Services site or services, a "cookie" helps The Neighbourhood Group Community Services to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same The Neighbourhood Group Community Services’ website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use The Neighbourhood Group Community Services’ features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline "cookies." Most web browsers automatically accept "cookies", but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline "cookies" if you prefer. If you choose to decline "cookies," you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of The Neighbourhood Group Community Services’ website or other affiliated websites you visit.
