1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that stores Internet settings. Almost all websites use this technology. It will be downloaded from your Internet browser the first time you visit a web page. The next time you visit this website with the same device, the cookie and the information stored in it will be returned to the website that created it (first-party cookie) or sent to another website to which it belongs (third-party cookie). This tells the website that it has been viewed with this browser previously and, in some cases, will vary the content displayed.
Some cookies are extremely useful because they can improve the user experience when revisiting a webpage that has been visited several times. As long as you use the same device and browser as before, cookies remember, for example, your preferences, how you use a page, and tailor the offers shown to make them more relevant to your interests and personal needs. Most cookies we use are automatically deleted from your hard drive after the end of the browser session ('session cookies'). Additionally, we also use cookies that remain with you on the hard drive beyond the session. This is mainly done to enhance the user experience when revisiting the website; the website can be tailored to your personal needs and thus optimize loading times.
