Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions. By setting a cookie on our site, you do not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If you reject the cookie, you may still use our site. The only drawback to this is that you will be limited in some areas of our site. For example, you may not place any product orders.
