Use of Cookies
The ORHA website may use “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server.

For example, if you personalize ORHA pages or register with ORHA’s sites or services, a cookie helps ORHA to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same ORHA website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the ORHA features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.
