Cookies Internet cookies (also known as “browser cookies”, “HTTP cookies” or “cookies”) consist of small files comprising letters and numbers that will be stored on the computer, mobile phone or other equipment through which the Internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed through a request sent by a webserver to a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome). Once installed, cookies have a fixed lifetime, and they are “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 device they have been installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
- • the name and
- • the content or the value of the cookie.

Cookies are divided into the following categories:
- • Session Cookies - A “session cookie” is a cookie that is automatically deleted when the user closes the browser.
- • Persistent cookies - A “persistent cookie” is a cookie that remains stored on the user's terminal until it reaches a certain expiration date (which may consist of a few minutes, days, or a few years in the future).The cookies used on this website can be classified into three categories:
