You can also set your browser to notify you each time new cookies are placed on your computer or other device. This webpage includes detailed steps on how you can block cookies:  https://allaboutcookies.org/how-to-clear-cookies

3.2. Please note:

3.2.1. if you choose to remove cookies, parts of website or App you are on may not work properly or your use of the website or App may be impaired; or

3.2.2. if you choose to use this website or App without declining any non-essential cookies, then your use will constitute implied consent to the non-essential cookies that are set.

3.3. You can review cookies by accessing the preference panels from your browser’s main menu (usually found under ‘Edit’, ‘Tools’ or ‘Options’). Do not track (DNT) is a feature offered by some browsers, with some newer browsers offering it as default. If you enable it, it sends a signal to websites to request that your browsing isn’t tracked, for example by third party advertisers or social networks, or analytic companies. No industry-wide agreed standard to determine how DNT requests should be managed has been put in place, so our websites don’t currently support DNT requests. Until that standard is established, we’ll continue to review DNT and other new technologies, but won’t respond to DNT requests.
