What is a “cookie”?

A “cookie” is a small file consisting of letters and numbers that is stored on a user’s computer, mobile device or other equipment from which the Internet is accessed. A cookie is installed following a request issued by a server to a browser and is completely “passive” (it does not contain software programs, viruses or spyware and cannot access information on the user’s hard drive).

Cookies contain two parts: their name and their value. The lifespan of a cookie is determined, and only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when the user returns to the respective website.
