What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is used.
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services that the website uses (third-party cookies). They can be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period. Some features described below use browser local storage, which works like a persistent cookie and is covered by this policy in the same way.
