What are cookies?

Cookies are small text strings, which the web sites visited by the user send to their terminal (usually the browser), where they are stored before being sent back to the same web sites during the next visit by the same user. During the browsing of a web site, the user could receive on his terminal even cookies that are sent by different web sites or web servers (so-called “third party”), where several elements can be stored (such as, for example, images, maps, sounds, specific links to pages of other domains) on the same site that is being visited.
Cookies are usually found in very high numbers on user’s browsers and sometimes feature a long temporal presence. They are used for different purposes: execution of authentication information, monitoring sessions, storing information about specific configurations relating to users who access servers, etc. (Privacy Guarantor – Identifying simplified methods for policy and acquiring consent for the use of cookies – 8th May 2014.
