What are cookies?
An “Internet Cookie” (also known as “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or “cookie”) is a small file, consisting of letters and numbers, that will be stored on your computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user through which the Internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed by request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g. Edge, Firefox, Chrome). Cookies once installed have a fixed lifespan, remaining “passive” in the sense that they do not contain software, viruses or spyware and will not access the information on the hard drive of the user on whose equipment they were installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
- name and
- the content or value of the cookie.
From a technical point of view, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the web page associated with that webserver.
There are the following categories of cookies:
- Session Cookies – A “session cookie” is a cookie that is automatically deleted when the user closes their browser.
- Persistent Cookies – A “persistent cookie” is a cookie that remains stored in the user’s terminal until it reaches a certain expiration date (which may be in a few minutes, days or several years in the future).

Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifetime of a cookie may vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed.
