What is a cookie?
A cookie is a harmless text file that is stored in your browser when you visit almost any website. The purpose of a cookie is to enable the website to remember your visit when you return to that page. Although many people don't know this, cookies have been used since the first browsers for the World Wide Web appeared.
What IS NOT a cookie?
It is not a virus, a Trojan, a worm, spam, spyware, or a pop-up window.
What information does a cookie store?
Cookies do not typically store sensitive information about you, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your ID or personal information, etc. The data they do store is of a technical nature, such as personal preferences, content customization, etc.
The web server doesn't associate you as a person, but rather with your web browser. In fact, if you normally browse with Internet Explorer and try browsing the same website with Firefox or Chrome, you'll see that the website doesn't realize you're the same person because it's actually associating the browser, not the person.
What types of cookies exist?
I. Types of cookies according to the entity that manages them:
Depending on the entity that manages the computer or domain from which the cookies are sent and processes the data obtained, we can distinguish:
First-party cookies: These are cookies sent to the User's terminal equipment from a computer or domain managed by the publisher itself and from which the service requested by the User is provided.
Third-party cookies: These are cookies sent to the User's terminal equipment from a computer or domain not managed by the publisher, but by another entity that processes the data obtained through the cookies.
In the event that cookies are installed from a computer or domain managed by the editor itself but the information collected through them is managed by a third party, they cannot be considered as own cookies.
II. Types of cookies according to the length of time they remain active:
Depending on the length of time they remain activated on the terminal equipment, we can distinguish:
