2. What are Cookies and what are they used for?

Cookies are small alphanumeric files sent by a web server to a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.), stored in RAM or on the hard drive. They allow the recognition of the user’s device and display content relevant and tailored to the user’s preferences. They can be used for different purposes, such as customizing the website according to a specific user’s needs, helping navigation, improving the quality of the website for the user, or storing user preferences and login information, all without directly identifying the user.

Cookies can be classified as “essential” (necessary for website operation) or “non-essential” (for analyzing user behavior, analytics cookies, or cookies used for displaying ads). They can also be session cookies (lasting while the browser is open) or persistent cookies (expire at a set time or can be manually deleted). Cookies can be first-party (belonging to the visited website) or third-party (placed on the device by domains of third-party websites).
