They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies help websites remember information about your visit, like your preferred language and other settings. This can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. There are different types of cookies, including:
- First-party cookies: These are cookies set by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies: These are cookies set by a domain other than the one you are visiting. This typically occurs when the website incorporates elements from other sites, such as social media plugins or advertising networks.
- Session cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission.
