What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website you visit saves on your computer or mobile device. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a given period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
Cookies can be set for different periods of time:
Persistent cookies remain on a user’s device for the duration specified in the cookie (see table below). They are activated each time the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.
Session cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once the user closes the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
