Introduction to Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data that a website sends to a user’s computer or device while they are browsing. These files may be stored in a dedicated space (the “cookie directory” or similar) specific to the browser they are using. Here, they will expire automatically after a set period or when you close your browser. Other cookies may remain on your device for the reason for which you or the website set them.
Cookies can enhance your user experience by allowing a website to remember who you are and make the interaction between you and the site easier and faster, as well as to make the experience of using the site more personal. Cookies may also be used to track how the site is used and to target advertising to you.
