Why am I seeing the "Country Manager" page?   What is it for?
 

If you’re seeing the Country Manager page, you’re either a brand new visitor to our site, or are a repeat visitor who has deleted their cookies. This page helps us "localize" your experience and show you information that will be the most relevant to you based on your location, such as pricing, promotions and contact information.

Upon selecting a Promega branch on this page, the system will set a "cookie" on your machine.  As long as you don't delete that cookie, you won't see that page again.  An exception to this rule would be if you specifically requested to revisit that page and change the branch you're associated with, which you can do from the homepage and the catalog portion of our site.

 

I selected the wrong country - how do I change it?
 

If the wrong country flag is displayed in the upper right corner of the page displayed in your browser, simply click on the flag to view the Country Manager page, then select the correct country.

 

What are cookies?
 

"Cookies" are small bits of information that are stored on your computer's hard drive by your browser. Cookies are often created when you visit a web site for the first time-they simply let the web site know when you return that you have been there before.

We use cookies as a way to enhance your experience on our web site. The computer-to-Promega recognition afforded by cookies makes it possible for you to submit certain information just once.

For example, the very first time you visit our site (if there isn't already a Promega cookie on your machine), we ask you to specify your geographic location. On future visits, you will not see this request page again. This indicates a functioning cookie. It's "remembering" what you told us on the first site visit.

 

How do I turn cookies on/off?
 

This will depend on what type of computer, browser and browser version you are using. A good place to start for help with turning cookies on/off is the online Help within your browser. ‘Help’ is usually one of the choices along the top menu bar. Look/search for information on enabling or disabling cookies. You may also find information on cookies under help topics involving security.
