What are cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by the websites you visit. They allow sites to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, currency) so you don’t have to re-enter them at every visit. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and pixel tags.

Cookies can be first-party (set by this site) or third-party (set by another domain embedded in this site). They can be session cookies (deleted when you close the browser) or persistent cookies (kept for a set period).
