What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a feature of Web browser software

a Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored by
a user's Web browser on the user's hard drive. Cookies can remember
what information a user accesses on one Web page to simplify subsequent
interactions with that Web site by the same user or to use the information
to streamline the user's transactions on related Web pages. This
makes it easier for a user to move from Web page to Web page and
to complete commercial transactions over the Internet. Cookies should
make your online experience easier and more personalized.
