What is a cookie?
A cookie is a file that stores website settings. It is downloaded by your browser the first time you visit a website, and the next time you return to the page from the same computer, tablet or phone, the browser can check if the cookie with the website address is saved.
The browser uses the data from the cookie and sends it back to the website. This allows websites to recognize if the user has already visited that website and, in advanced applications, individual settings can also be adjusted accordingly.
