What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies enable the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don't have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

Cookies can be classified based on their lifespan and the domain they belong to. Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a longer period or until you manually delete them. First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting, while third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting directly. These are often used for tracking and advertising purposes.
