| __utmb | 30 minutes | This cookie is used to establish and continue a user session with our Website. When a user views a page on our Website, the Google Analytics code attempts to update this cookie. If it does not find the cookie, a new one is written and a new session is established. Each time a user visits a different page on our Website; this cookie is updated to expire in 30 minutes, thus continuing a single session for as long as user activity continues within 30-minute intervals. This cookie expires when a user pauses on a page on our site for longer than 30 minutes. |

The __utmt cookie passes the information provided via the _setVar() method, which you use to create a custom user segment.

This cookie is only written if you have added the_setVar() method for the tracking code on your website page |
