1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function more efficiently, to provide a better and more personalized browsing experience, and to give website owners useful information about how their sites are being used.
Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored. Each time you make a subsequent request to the same server, the browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
Cookies can be classified in a number of ways:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are used to keep track of your movements from page to page so that you are not asked for information you have already provided during a visit.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device after you close your browser, until they expire or you delete them manually. They help websites recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences across multiple sessions.
- First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by through our website.

These technologies work in a similar way to cookies and may be used in combination with cookies to help us better understand how visitors interact with our website.
