Across Morita Estates we use Flash files to present information, allow integration with third parties (such as YouTube) and can offer a richer online experience for you.. These can store cookie-like data on your computer, known as Local Shared Objects.
Currently technology can’t review the ‘inner workings’ of Flash files which present information, allow integration with third parties (such as YouTube) and can offer a richer online experience for you and although we aim to identify any Flash elements that are likely to set cookies we can’t guarantee the status of every Flash file. However, Adobe offers a tool to monitor, opt out and remove ‘Flash cookies’.
