What are cookies?

• A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site.
• · First party cookies are cookies set by the website you’re visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies. Cookies normally work by assigning a unique number to your device and are stored on your browser by the websites that you visit as well as third party service providers and partners to those websites.
• · Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.
• The purpose is to enable the site to remember your preferences (such as user name, language, etc.) for a certain period of time.
• That way, you don’t have to re-enter them when browsing around the site during the same visit.
