What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and to personalize your experience. Cookies are created when your browser loads a particular website. The website sends information to the browser, which then creates a text file. Every time you return to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website's server. Cookies can be "session cookies" (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them).

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third parties, such as analytics services or advertising networks (known as "third-party cookies"). First-party cookies are generally used to remember your preferences and provide a better user experience. Third-party cookies are often used for tracking and advertising purposes across different websites.
