The cookie is installed by request issued by a web-server to a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely \"passive\" (does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access the information on the user's hard drive).\r\n\r\nA cookie consists of two parts: the name and content or the value of the cookie. Furthermore, the duration of a cookie is determined; technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that webserver.\r\n\r\nCookies themselves do not require personal information in order to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.\r\n\u2022 Session cookies \u2013 these are temporarily stored in the web browser's cookie folder so that it can store them until the user leaves the web site or closes the browser window (e.g. at the time of logging in\/out on a webmail account or social networks)\r\n\u2022 Persistent cookies \u2013 These are stored on the hard drive of a computer or equipment (and generally depend on the preset lifetime of the cookie). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is visiting at the time \u2013 known as 'third party cookies' \u2013 which can be used anonymously to memorize a user's interests so that advertising is delivered as relevant to users as possible.\r\n\r\nWhat are the advantages of cookies? <\/strong>\r\n\r\nA cookie contains information that links a web browser (user) to a specific web-server (website). If a browser accesses that web-server again, it can read the information already stored and react accordingly. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide comfortable services to users: e.g. online privacy preferences, website language options, shopping carts or relevant advertising.\r\n\r\nWhat is the life of a cookie?<\/strong>\r\n\r\nCookies are managed by webservers. The life of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and are no longer retained once the user has left the website and some cookies are retained and reused every time the user returns to that website ('permanent cookies'). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through browser settings.\r\n\r\nWhat are third-party cookies?<\/strong>\r\n\r\nCertain sections of content on some sites may be provided through third parties\/providers (e.g. news box, video or ad). These third parties may also place cookies through the website and they are called \"third party cookies\" because they are not placed by the owner of that website.
