Cookies:
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit them. They act as a unique identifier for your device, allowing the website to remember your preferences, actions, and browsing patterns. Think of them as a digital “memory” for the website, enabling it to recognize you and provide a personalized experience.
How Cookies Work:
When you access a website, the website sends a request to your browser to place a cookie on your device. Your browser then saves this small text file, containing data such as your user ID, website preferences, and browsing history. Upon subsequent visits to the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the website, allowing it to “remember” you and tailor your experience accordingly.
Types of Cookies:
Cookies can be categorized based on their origin, duration, and purpose:
- First-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by the website you are currently visiting. They are typically used to enhance your browsing experience by remembering your preferences and login details.
- Third-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by a different domain than the website you are currently visiting. They are often used for advertising and tracking purposes, allowing companies to collect data about your online behavior across multiple websites.
- Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. They are primarily used to maintain your session on a website, such as remembering items in your shopping cart.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period, even after you close your browser. They are used to remember your preferences and actions across multiple browsing sessions.

- Local Storage: This is a technology that allows websites to store data on your device, similar to cookies but with larger storage capacity. It can be used to save website settings, cache data, or store offline content.
- Device Fingerprinting: This technique involves collecting information about your device’s characteristics, such as your operating system, browser version, and installed plugins. This data can be used to create a unique “fingerprint” for your device, allowing websites to track you across different browsing sessions.
Purpose of Cookies and Similar Technologies:
These technologies serve various purposes, including:
- Essential Functionalities: Enabling basic website features like logging in, navigating between pages, and accessing secure areas.
