What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used. Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information on their own, but they can be linked to personal data that you have provided.
