Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember preferences and provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage and pixel tags.
Cookies may be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remaining until they expire or you delete them). They may be set by the website you visit ("first-party cookies") or by third parties ("third-party cookies").
