Cookies allow websites, among other things, to store and retrieve information about users’ browsing habits or their devices, and, depending on the information they store and how the user uses their device, they can be used to recognize the user. Some websites do this, and others don’t. It all depends on the cookies they use. Keep in mind that the use of cookies is a common technique on the internet for performing certain functions. Some cookies are even considered essential for the proper functioning and display of the site.

2. TYPES OF COOKIES
