1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognize returning users, remember preferences, and track behavior. Cookies do not contain viruses or malware and cannot execute code on your device. They are inert data files that require a browser to read and process them. Most websites use cookies to improve user experience, deliver targeted content, and measure website performance.

They may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners.
