What are cookies
A “cookie” is a text file saved on the user’s computer when he accesses a website with the purpose of providing information each time the user returns to the same site. It is a sort of reminder of the visited internet page. With the cookie, the web server sends information to the user’s browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) stored on the latter’s computer, and will be read and updated each time the user returns to the site. In this way the website can automatically adapt to the user. During navigation, the user could also receive cookies from different sites on his terminal (“third-party” cookies), set directly by the operators of said websites and used for the purposes and according to the methods defined by them.

Depending on their duration, they are divided into session cookies (i.e. temporary cookies that are automatically deleted from the terminal at the end of the browsing session by closing the browser) and persistent cookies (i.e. those that remain stored on the terminal until they expire or are canceled by the user).
