What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow websites to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and display preferences) over a period of time, so you don't have to re-enter them each time you visit.
We also use similar technologies like local storage and session storage to store data on your device for performance and personalisation purposes.
