What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you access a website. Cookies are used for a variety of purposes to assist websites with remembering preferences, enhancing website functionality, improving your experience as the user, and gathering analytics. Cookies have become common tools for assisting websites in becoming more efficient as well as providing information to website owners about how users engage with their websites.

How information collected through cookies is shared depends on whether the cookie is deemed a first party cookie or a third party. In certain cases, the tool which administers cookies may allow site operators to choose a single third party to place cookies through the use of the particular site. This can track users across the different websites which utilize the selected third-party tool.

Major web browsers provide different opt out mechanisms which allow you as a user to selectively choose to decline use of certain or all cookies by all websites or certain websites. These same browsers also allow you to see the cookies used by a particular website. There are other options under control of users also for managing website cookies, such as using plug-ins that manage cookies information via the browser.

Similar to how companies continue to learn about usage of cookies on websites by monitoring the number of users up taking certain flavors of cookies, marketers continue to monitor users in their preferences with management of their cookie use settings.
