Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on a user's device by a web browser while browsing a website. They are created to enhance the user experience by remembering information about the user's visit, such as login credentials, preferences, and tracking information. Cookies can be session-based, meaning they exist only during a user's browsing session, or persistent, remaining on the device even after the session has ended. Websites use cookies for various purposes, including remembering user settings, analyzing site traffic, and delivering personalized content or advertisements. The use of cookies raises privacy concerns, as they can be used to track users' online behavior across different sites. Users typically have the ability to manage cookies through their browser settings, allowing them to accept, reject, or delete cookies as they see fit.
