What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

Session cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The use of cookies is governed by various privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (California Civil Code § 1798.100 et seq.) and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (15 U.S.C. § 6501 et seq.), which impose specific requirements regarding the use of cookies and the collection of personal data.
