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 are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better browsing experience, and supply information to the owners of the site.
Cookies set by the website operator are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website operator are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by external services such as analytics, advertising, and social media integrations.

Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically set your browser to block all cookies, accept all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set.
