What Are Cookies And Why Do We Use Them?

Cookies consist of small text files that are sent by a website to a web browser; they contain data and information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. This allows a specific website to identify and track a specific web browser.

Cookies have a range of functions, one of which is to enable a website to recognise a device each time it visits, so whether it’s a smartphone, tablet or laptop, the website will remember the user’s preferences and recommend content and products.

Cookies can also retain more personal information such as login details, but the majority of the time they’re used to track and identify the used device rather than the user themselves.
