What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files generated by the websites the User visits, which contain session data that may be useful later on the website. These data allow the website to retain its information from one page to another, and also to analyze how users interact with the site.

Cookies are essential to how the Internet works, providing countless advantages in the delivery of interactive services and making websites easier to browse and use. Cookies cannot damage devices, and having them enabled helps to identify and fix errors.
