1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing information stored by a website’s server on the terminal equipment (e.g., computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) of a visitor during their navigation. The website retrieves this information during subsequent visits to offer services related to such data (e.g., language preferences, search history, etc.). Cookies help websites uniquely recognize visitors and “remember” specific information, actions, and preferences to facilitate navigation. They also assist in analyzing and addressing issues during navigation and help personalize advertising content.

The term “cookies” also includes other similar tracking technologies used for storing or collecting information on/from the visitor’s terminal equipment (e.g., pixels). In general, the main purpose of cookies is to provide you with the best possible browsing experience in terms of convenience and efficiency.

Cookies may be set either by the provider of the website the user is visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by others through the provider’s website (“third-party cookies”). Based on their duration, cookies are classified as “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Session cookies are deleted at the end of your browser session, i.e., when you close the browser, whereas persistent cookies are stored on your device even after the browser is closed and are deleted once their lifespan ends.
