What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files (usually numbers or letters) that can be placed in a file in your web browser on your computer, phone or other device (“Computer”) when you visit a website. A cookie will typically contain the name of the originating domain, the lifetime of the cookie, and a randomly generated unique number or other value.
Cookies, are built specifically for Internet web browsers to track, personalize, and save information about each user’s session. A “session” just refers to the time you spend on a website. Cookies are created to identify you when you visit a new website. The web server — which stores the website’s data — sends a short stream of identifying info to your web browser. Data stored in a cookie is created by the server upon your connection, and that data is labeled with an ID unique to you and your Computer. When the cookie is exchanged between your computer and the network server, the server reads the ID and knows what information to specifically serve to you. The cookie itself is anonymous and does not contain any Personal Data.
In case of first-party cookies, it’s generally not possible with your browser’s default settings for another website to see cookies set by another website. However, there are third-party cookies that allow two different websites to make requests to the same third-party web domain so that the third-party can store a cookie on the one website and access it on the other.
