When you visit BB Sports, you can surf the site anonymously and access important information without revealing your identity. However, in order to provide a better service, we may use "cookies" to track your visit. A cookie is a text-only string of information that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer's hard disk so that the website can remember who you are. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
Two types of cookies are used on this website:
Session Cookies
To allow you to carry information across pages of our site and avoid having to re-enter information. Within registration to allow you to access stored information. To apply discounts dependant on your point of entry into the site.
Persistent Cookies
To allow you to maintain a shopping basket. To help us recognise you as a unique visitor (just a number) when you return to our website and to allow us to tailor content to match your preferences. This also prevents you from having to 'Log In' every visit. The cookie cannot be read by a Web site other than the one that sent the cookie.

How we protect your information:
We endeavour to protect your information in the following ways:
- By encrypting your personal information. When you place an order, a secure server encrypts all sensitive information you input before it is sent to us. This protects your confidential data, particularly your credit card details from unauthorised use.
- By keeping your information up to date and accurate. Please note that to do this, we require you to tell us if any of your details such as name or address changes.
- By having in place strict security procedures for the storage and disclosure of your information to prevent unauthorised access.
