Cookies

The term “cookie” refers to a small data file consisting solely of a series of information in text form, which the website transfers to your web browser located on your computer’s hard drive, either temporarily throughout your visit , or sometimes for longer periods, depending on the type of cookie.

Cookies perform various functions (for example, distinguishing you from other visitors to the same website or remembering certain things about you, such as your preferences) and are used by most websites to improve your user experience.
Each cookie is unique to your browser and contains certain anonymous information. A cookie usually contains the name of the field where the cookie came from, the “lifetime” of the cookie and a value (usually in the form of a randomly generated unique number).

The main types of cookies that websites may use are described below
• Visit cookies (session cookies)
These are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your device’s browser only during your visit and are deleted when you close the browser.
• Persistent cookies
These remain in your device’s browser cookie file even after the browser is closed, sometimes for a year or more (the exact length of stay depends on the lifetime of each cookie). Persistent cookies are used when the website administrator may need to know who you are for more than one visit (eg to remember your username or your website customization preferences).
• First-party cookies
These are cookies that are installed on your browser and/or on your device’s hard drive by the website you are visiting.
