WHAT IS A COOKIE?

A “Cookie” is a small piece of information sent by a web server to be stored on a web browser so that it can be read back later from that browser. The cookie is a text file saved in the browser’s directory and stored in the computer’s random access memory while the browser is running. The cookie may also be stored on the computer’s hard drive once a user logs off from that website or web server.

Cookies typically fall into the following categories:

  • A First-Party Cookie refers to a Cookie created by the domain of the website the user is visiting.
  • A Third-Party Cookie is a Cookie that is placed by a domain other than that of the website the user is visiting.
  • A Session Cookie is temporary, linking the actions of a user during the any given browser session. When the browser is closed, the cookie is deleted.
  • A Persistent Cookie is stored for a specific period of time and activates each time the user visits the website that created the Cookie.

A “WEB BEACON” (also called a “pixel tag” or “clear GIF”) is a piece of computer code that enables us to monitor user activity and website traffic.
