What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the site's owners.

Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (for example, embedded videos, analytics, and advertising).
