What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or your computer’s hard drive. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting to refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies as soon as you visit our Site.
Key concepts
First and third-party cookies: whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the domain placing the cookie.
First-party cookies are those set by a website that the user is visiting at the time (e.g., cookies placed by our Site).
Third-party cookies are cookies set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie.
Persistent cookies: these cookies remain on a user’s device for the time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.
Session cookies: these cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
