What is a Cookie?

Cookies are small text files sent to your computer or mobile device from a website. They are specific to your account or browser and track how you navigate through a website. Cookies allow the site to offer personalized options based on data from your previous visits. Additionally, cookies are utilized to analyze web traffic and support advertising and marketing strategies. There are two main types of cookies: session-based and persistent. Session-based cookies are temporary, lasting only while your browser remains open, and your browser automatically deletes them once you close it. Persistent cookies, on the other hand, remain until you or your browser deletes them or until they expire. Nearly all websites use cookies, and they are safe for your system.
