What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a piece of data that is placed on an internet user's computer. The information contained in the cookie is initially set by the website and can be used when the user revisits the website. Cookies were designed to remember things that an internet user has done on that website in the past, such as adding products to their cart, logging in, or clicking on links. Cookies are not harmful. They are not computer programs and cannot circulate viruses. This information about how customers use the website is used in many ways:

• To keep a record of the products you've added to your cart for your next visit
• To make personalized product recommendations based on your previous shopping on the website
• To remember the preferences you have set up for the website
• To find out what the website needs improvement on and make future improvements
• To allow you to share pages with social networks like Facebook

Types of Cookies

Session (or Transient) Cookies
Session cookies are stored in your computer's memory for the duration of your browsing session. They become unavailable after the session has been inactive for a time and are automatically deleted from your computer when the web browser is closed. Their main purpose is to allow you to move between pages on a website without having to log in repeatedly.

Persistent (or Permanent) Cookies
Persistent cookies are stored in the user's computer memory and are not deleted or removed when the web browser is closed. They are used to keep your preferences for the website, so they will be recalled the next time you visit the website. They are also used to gather information about the numbers of visitors, the average time spent on a particular page, and analyze shopping behavior on the website. This information is used to find out how the website works and where it can be improved.

Flash Cookies (or Locally Shared Objects)
Most likely, you have Adobe Flash installed on your computer. Websites that contain Flash can also store small amounts of data on your computer that can be used in the same way as cookies are. Flash cookies can also be used to record the data that is stored in other types of cookies. So, when you delete cookies from your browser, your Flash cookies are not affected, meaning a website may still identify you if it previously recorded the deleted cookie data into a Flash cookie.

Sharing with Social Networks
If you use the buttons that allow you to share products and content with your friends via social networks like Twitter and Facebook, these companies may set a cookie on your computer system.
