What is Cache?

Cache has been designed to improve performance and reduce network traffic.
When you view a webpage it is stored in both your browser's memory cache and/or
your computer’s disk cache. Your browser relies on its memory cache when you use
the “Back” button. Rather than going to the network to retrieve the page, the page
is retrieved from the browser memory cache.

Why Clear Cache?

As the Petrotranz Website is upgraded with new features and functionality, Internet
Explorer's/Google Chrome cache may have to be refreshed.
