2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
We use the term “cookies” to refer to cookies and similar technologies through which information can be collected automatically.
An “Internet Cookie” (also known as “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or “cookie”) is a small file, consisting of letters and numbers, that will be stored on a user’s computer, mobile terminal, or other equipment through which the Internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed by a web-server request to a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). Once installed cookies have a specified life span, remaining “passive”, in the sense that they do not contain software, viruses, or spyware and will not access the information on the user’s hard drive on whose equipment they were installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
- the name of the cookie
- content or value of the cookie.
Technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.
