WHAT IS A COOKIE?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored in the browser when visiting almost any web page. Its main use is so that the web is able to remember your visit when you return to browse that page. Cookies generally store information of a technical nature, personal preferences, content personalization, usage statistics, links to social networks, access to user accounts, etc. The purpose of the cookie is to adapt web content to your profile and needs. Without cookies, the services offered by any page would be significantly reduced.

WHAT IS A COOKIE NOT?

It is not a virus, nor a Trojan horse, nor a worm, nor spam, nor spyware, nor an open pop-up window.

WHAT INFORMATION IS STORED BY A COOKIE?

Cookies generally do not store sensitive information such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your identity or personal information, etc. The data stored is mainly of a technical nature, personal preferences, content customization, etc. It does not associate you as a person, but associates your web browser. In fact, if you browse regularly in Internet Explorer and try to browse the same site with Firefox or Chrome, you will see that the web does not realize that you are the same person because it is actually associating the browser, not the person.
