Cookies are small text files containing unique data to identify your computer to the network. When you visit a website, it gives your browser a cookie to store in a cookie file that’s placed in your browser’s folder on your hard drive. The next time you visit the same website, the browser will give back the cookie to identify you. Then the website loads with a personalized experience.

Cookies do contain data, and that typically includes a unique identifier and a site name. A cookie could also include personally identifiable information such as your name, address, email, or phone number if you’ve provided that information to a website.

A simple example of cookies is when you open up a website and your username and password are auto-filled. Cookies provided your login information to the website. Another example is when you go online shopping on Amazon and find items that are still in your cart from your last purchasing spree.

Until the government passed a law that forced all websites to ask users to accept or reject cookies, it was easy. You just set your browser to reject unnecessary cookies.

Now you have to confirm your preference every time you visit a site.

Cookies are small text files that give information back to the website. Necessary ones are required to allow navigation through the site. Others are just intrusive and there to collect data about you and your browsing habits.

I have all my browsers set to reject and I also reject when asked.
