More information about cookies
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a harmless text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. The purpose of the cookie is to allow the website to remember your visit when you return to that page. Although many people are unaware, cookies have been used for 20 years, since the first browsers for the World Wide Web appeared.
What is NOT a cookie?
It is not a virus, a Trojan horse, a worm, spam, spyware, nor does it open pop-up windows.
What information does a cookie store?
Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your ID card, or other personal information. The data they store is technical in nature, such as personal preferences, content customization, etc.
The web server doesn’t associate you as a person, but rather your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and then try browsing the same website with Firefox or Chrome, you’ll see that the website doesn’t recognize you as the same person because it’s actually associating the browser, not the individual.
What types of cookies are there?
- Technical cookies: These are the most basic and allow, among other things, the website to know when a human or an automated application is browsing, and whether the user is anonymous or registered—essential tasks for the operation of any dynamic website.
- Analytics cookies: These collect information about your browsing activity, the sections you visit most often, products viewed, time of day, language, etc.
- Advertising cookies: These display advertising based on your browsing activity, country of origin, language, etc.
What are first-party and third-party cookies?
First-party cookies are generated by the website you are visiting, while third-party cookies are generated by external services or providers such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.
