On its website, BFI, like other entities, uses what is called cookies (or cookie files); they are short text files stored on your terminal, which can be a PC or Mac computer, smartphone, tablet or any other device.

Cookies can be read by the BFI system and also by systems owned by third parties whose services we use (like Google Analytics).

Your web browser allows the use of cookies on your terminal by default. Cookies do not need to be stored on your terminal, and you can opt out or deactivate them in your web browser settings.
