1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to give website owners useful information about how their site is being used.

Cookies typically contain a unique identifier, the name of the website, and some numbers and characters. They allow a website to recognize your device and remember your preferences, such as language settings or items in a shopping cart. Some cookies are essential for the website to function, while others are used for analytics, marketing, or other purposes.
