1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. It allows the site to remember your actions and preferences (login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a given period, so that you don't have to keep re-entering them every time you return to the site or browse from one page to another.

Cookies are also used to compile anonymous statistics on browsing the Platform.
