Summary
- Cookies have been implemented within the SILO meteogram pages to help make the web interface
more user-friendly. The cookies are used to capture a pair of latitude / longitude values the user
has previously entered to generate meteograms. However, latitude and longitude values are not required
if users choose to click on a location of a state map.
- The cookies are temporarily stored on client machine and will expire within one year of the last use.
- The cookies used here do not monitor any personal information including the pattern of use.
- The only data they store are the location last selected, and some basic fixed parameters such as
the cookie names, and the specific URL where it is applicable.
- If cookies are disabled or removed on user browsers, meteogram pages still function correctly.
Users just need to specify a location.
