Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners.
Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a different domain than the one you are visiting). They can also be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remaining on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
