2. What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to the owners of the site. Cookies can be “persistent” (remaining on your device until they expire or are deleted) or “session-based” (deleted when you close your browser). They can be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties whose content appears on the page (“third-party cookies”).
